A VANDAL wrecked a £100-a-tin paint shop, leaving staff to clear up 50 shades of rage.
The raider swiped pots off shelves at the Farrow & Ball store and daubed the posh palette all over walls and floors.

Riot police were pelted with objects as they tried to stop the rampage.
The man was restrained and taken away on a stretcher.
Snaps show the destruction with tins of white, grey and pink paint turned over and countertops smeared in Hove, East Sussex.
Farrow and Ball gives its paints unique names including Duster, Paean Black and Sulking Room Pink.
Local resident Lynne Moore said: “Imagine what it was like for the staff.
“It’s a nice shop.
“It’s just unbelievable.”
Farrow & Ball said: “The showroom has sustained some damage, which we are currently assessing.
“We will share an update on reopening plans as soon as possible.”
