If you mix pink and white paint together you will end up with a very pail pink. To make lavender you need mix 3/4 white, 1/8 red and 1/8 blue. Remember that red and blue will make purple. Adding purple to white will make lavender.

How do I mix urethane single stage paint?

This depends on what color you want. Generally speaking, start with a color that's close to what you want. It's easier if you start with one that's a little lighter, rather than darker, than your target color. Let's say you want lavender. Start with light blue, and add red just a little at a time, stirring thoroughly as you go along. If you want darker lavender, don't add black -- add dark blue. If you want it lighter you can add either white or a really pale blue or pink. Or, take your existing paint to a paint store, look at their color charts, and ask the staff there to mix it up for you. Also, if you have a color you are trying to match (such as fabric), most of the paint stores have the computer matching systems. This is where they place your swatch in front of a camera eye and it sends it to their color matching system in the computer. The computer in turn spits out a formula for your custom color. You can make adjustments right there if you need to. Mixing paint to create your own custom color is a formula for heartbreak. There's not enough pigment in paint to get it to do more than minimal color shifts. Try this, if you'd like: go to a Home Depot store and buy a gallon of the darkest blue paint in the Disney line. Also buy a five-gallon bucket and two gallons of Ultra Pure White paint. (I have done this.) Go home and pour all three gallons of paint into the bucket, then stir to an even color. It won't be very much lighter than it was when you started. All the people who paint with oils are now thinking, "But I mix custom colors with my oils all the time!" You certainly do. But what's the dry time on your oils? Days or weeks. Oils also need a year's curing time before you can varnish them. The more pigment you add to a paint, the longer it takes for the paint to dry, and oils are very pigment-dense. No one in the world would accept wall paint that needed more than a couple hours to dry, or that couldn't be washed for a year. The product used to tint paint is Universal Pigment. They won't sell this to anyone but a paint dealer because they know people would use it as paint and it is horrifically bad as paint--it won't dry and it won't stick when the water in it finally gets around to evaporating. If you want to mix your own custom color, go to a paint store like Sherwin-Williams where the paint mixers have experience and color training, not a home center where the training consists of ten minutes of instruction on which button to push to make the color go into the can.


Can you mix paint with primer for interior?

Sure. You can mix them. Why would you? It will not help prime the walls or wood. The primer coat needs to be applied separately to be effective.

What color do you get when you mix brown and lavender?

When you mix brown and lavender, you would typically get a muted, earthy tone. Brown is a dark color created by mixing all three primary colors (red, blue, and yellow), while lavender is a lighter shade created by mixing blue and red. Combining these two colors would likely result in a dusky purple or taupe-like color, depending on the ratios of brown to lavender used in the mixture.
