Great thanks.

Thanks - did you paint the MDF as well?
Yep, just Farrow and Ball Estate Eggshell. Perfectly waterproof and wipes down easily. I know F&B paint gets criticised for being a bit rubbish but my experience of the Eggshell and Gloss is excellent. We have both Dulux Weathershield and F&B gloss on exterior windows and doors and the Weathershield looks crap after five years while the F&B gloss looks like it did on day one.

Hello,

I am thinking about getting panels / cladding on the bathroom wall when I refurb it.

I need a bit of advice / help. PVC panels, which I assume is what you'd have in a bathroom instead of wood, are generally a white / clear colour. Yet in every photo I see people have coloured panels. Is there a magical place where you can buy coloured panels or is there a special paint to use on PVC?

E.g.





Also - has anyone done this? Any recommendations?

Thanks!
How do you know any of that is PVC? It could be anything. If you use a MR MDF in non soaked areas you can repaint it in future years to tidy it up or change the colour scheme.
