I admit to this being a made up name from an old painter’s bill charging to ‘wash, stop and paint three times in oil’. It seemed an enticing way to describe a colour like washing up water, given that it is actually an elegant, subtle grey, with a touch of lavender. This multi tonal colour is made from a carefully curated combination of natural and earth pigments, a process which is kind to nature. We recommend using Wash Stop for walls or trim.
It is my first time to decorate my home, I wasn’t sure if everything would go to plan , we were impressed there’s almost odourless, my 3 year old was with me the whole day and was quite happy to jump in and paint with me. I was pleased to see how easy the paint can be wash off on her little hands. The result speaks itself, my room is now completely transformed, I will select more colours from Edward Bulmer when the house is done, their colours can certainly lift up the whole house, highly recommended.

We have spent years perfecting our pioneering plant-based paints and we are proud of the product we have created using gentle chemistry and a lot of dedication to making a more sustainable paint! We believe we are pioneers in creating natural paints using plant-based ingredients instead of petrochemical derived products.
Unlike many other paint brands, what’s in our tins is on our tins! We declare all of our ingredients, read our full list of ingredients and learn more about how our paint is made.
We use our local courier service called APC which is based in Hereford. APC operates franchises throughout the country and we can deliver parcels throughout the UK on an overnight service.
We are not able to offer returns, as all of our paint is mixed to order and therefore is a bespoke product.

Invisible green is the colour of confidence, equally at ease in grand rooms and humble nests. It’s the perfect shade of calm and joy – and who doesn’t need that in their lives?

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
