Little Greene Distemper
Select your colour
Little Greene Distemper is a chalky, flat hard distemper for walls, ceilings and fine plasterwork, especially in older buildings with lime or natural plaster. It is highly breathable and covers well. It can be wiped but is not meant for busy areas or rooms with condensation, and it is available in pastel shades.
At Dawes on Goldhawk Road, Shepherd's Bush, we mix Little Greene Distemper to order in any Little Greene colour. Call us on 020 8748 6711 or pop in.

About Little Greene
Little Greene has made paint in Manchester since 1773. Its colours are mixed with a high proportion of pigment for real depth, and most of its finishes are water based with very low VOCs.
