TBH you can get slight variations of the same colour from one store to the next depending on how long ago the machine was calibrated, also the sample pots whilst give an indication of colour, the samples are just a base paint so will look slightly different once the colour has been mixed in the chosen finish, but I know what you mean when a customer has spent so long choosing a colour you do your hardest to make sure it's bang on

This is the same woman who didn't want the border any lower as it looks dated - 'so 80's/90's' apparently.
Now the couple have been arguing about what colour grout, obviously the one she wants will look god awful
and me and him agree on a different colour. He asked me if I could be diplomatic and recommend the better colour
from a proffesional point of view! He said what ever he suggests she will disagree with him as a matter of course.
Poor old chap.
The wife is an asian woman in her 50's - she's nice enough to me, but he don't half get grief off her.
