In 1976 I couldn't find the spotted paint that my Peels were painted with inside so I used Dulux grey. In those days the only place I found spotted paint was on the local gent's walls in Eastbourne!  ;D
Ain't got nuffink now except memories.

Could someone post a photo of the genuine (toilet wall) speckled finish. I saw the trident that lawrence House had and I am fairly sure some of the specialist spray cans in Homebase are similar. Or it could be replicated.

I believe you can make your own. Its two differing solvent based paints mixed together, I believe. One rejects the other, leaving flekled specks, if you put the wrong paint in first.

Ages of sanding and filling finally got it sitting in primer , few more pin holes showed through the primer but it's good enough for me
