Quick Aura question

13 years ago

Last night I bought a two gallons of BM Aura paint. When I opened them to paint this morning there color is at LEAST 3 shades lighter than the sample pot I bought. Does Aura dry a lot darker over time or should I just take it back to the store for adjusting? Thanks!

Take it back. The color should dry to its final color in under one hour.

Thanks Paintguy! I brought it back to the store and they had mixed the wrong color and gave me new paint. I painted yesterday and LOVE IT!!
