Hi Nick, thank you for your review, and we're sorry to hear the color came out lighter than expected. Sometimes colors can appear different o a screen. Also, colors are easily influenced by the lighting when applied. Because of this, it's always best to get a paint sample. At this point, it sounds like you may need to select a new color. To help with this, please reach out to us directly; we'd like to help make things right. -Edith
