I have an older brick home (built in the 30's). The brick is a reddish color and the mortar is a dull brown/pinkish shade. The trim on my windows and doors is white. Here's my question: I purchased two gallons of porch floor enamel in a creamy beige (it was on Lowe's reject table for $2 a gallon!!). My question is do you think the creamy beige will look okay? Or, should I try to darken it, and if so where do I purchase the pigments and what colors? Thanks for your input

Creamy beige should work fine. My only quibble is that it will probably show dirt. Most of the time adjusting colors is done at the paint store -- they have the pigment, after all. Buying universal tints for a bargain paint would kind of negate the bargain. For $2/gal, it is what it is.

Thanks Casey, Kinda my thoughts too. Just thought if it wasn't too "pricey" I might try. Now if it would just warm up and stop raining! LOL
