It’s not mine mate. It’s the colour I’d like to go with though

You thought this was some kind of Britain first post didn’t you!! Two questions: Could someone advise me on which colour this is please? Secondly, my primer is 3:1:1. My mixing cup has the numbers for paint and hardener but not thinner. On the thinner scale it has 5,10,15,20 etc rather than...
