What material did you paint the radiator with? 'cause I was told that only light hues are available for radiators!

The radiators were sent to a powder-coating company and were finished in Farrow & Ball Lamp Room Grey. Radiators can be finished in any colour although with darker colours they lose some of their thermal efficiency.

I would be a bit wary getting radiators powder coated yourself, as the baking process can damage the seals on column models and could invalidate the warranty on a lot of models. We can often get the manufacturer to powder coat so you don't encounter this issue. If you opt to powder coat yourself, I would check with the supplier about the warranty.

We offer radiators in a range of radiators in Farrow & Ball colours and 100s of shades including dark colours. I am a bit puzzled why they said you can only have it in light hues???

Bottle green (this has been powder-coated but by the manufacturer so doesn't affect the warranty)

Old Penny (this has been powder-coated again by the manufacturer)

Please let me know if you need any advice.

What are your thoughts on colourful radiators?

We love using coloured radiators in our bathroom design. It is so easy to do now as the quality manufacturers such as Bisque, Zehnder and SBH stock the popular colours such as anthracites, steel and beiges. Even the bespoke colours only take a few weeks to be delivered. It is such a simple way to help give a bathroom the WOW factor.

What should radiator colour match?

I would go with an Old Penny, Anthracite or Gun Metal shade. Traditional metallic finishes are the most popular on our cast iron radiators and you can easily redecorate around a metallic finish rather than worrying about trying to match to specific shades.

If the walls are pale they will stand out like two slabs of darkness. It probably depends on the style of the room. Do you have photos?

Thanks for comments - yeah I think you're right on the last two minnie101 - part of me was tempted as I've seen some nice high contrast graphite radiators but you probably need the right interior to make that work. I too found the pics to be inconsistent and also the pics look very different to the RAL guide I have. They will send some sample/swatches and I will go from there - but it seems like it's narrowed to the first three. Hope the Oyster or Agate work out as they are both matt whereas the white is shiny.... Thanks so much!
