Love this color

The coverage is insane, zero smell, and only needed one coat for my living room. I still have more than 1/2 gallon left over. Guess I will be painting some additional walls.

Updated review - a great color for living space once the initial shock wears off!

Hi,

I posted a review earlier with just my china cabinet. I did my entire living space (living and dining room) in irony, and at first, it was a shock. But now that my furniture is back, I really love it. It does have some blue undertones, but they are subtle. I think cool gray is an accurate description. In the photo shown, my wall hanging and window treatments are not yet up but irony works with my warm furnishings.

In the right context, a cool, industrial gray

I am having buyer's remorse about irony because I thought it had a bit more blue in it. In my space, it is reading industrial gray. I did my entire living and dining room this color! But will post an update when the furniture is back...
