Gray paint contains pigment from both white paint and black paint. The obtain an intermediate shade of gray mix equal parts of both white pigment and black pigment. If a darker shade of gray is desired the black pigment should be increased and the white pigment decreased. If a lighter shade of gray is desirable increase the white pigment and decrease the black pigment.
