Incredibly rude manager using foul language to customer

My husband visited Dulux Parktown North today (27 August 2022). He asked for a water based non drip black enamel. The young assistant found him a product and he paid for it and took it home. When he opened the tin he found it was neither non drip nor pure black, . The only criteria match was water-based. Since he specifically wanted a black to match existing paint, and a non-drip he returned to the shop an hour later. The manager said that they did not have a non drip black in stock and refused to give a refund for the wrong supply. He then called my husband a F**ing stupid old man and other foul language. He left the product with the manager and accepted that he was not going to reimburse him or offer a credit. He advised the manager that he would be writing to Dulux to complain about his unacceptable behaviour, and that he would not be purchasing Dulux products in the future.

We had a call from Dulux with an apology but telling us that the shop advertising as Dulux was not in fact owned by them. We were advised that someone would be calling us again but this did not happen
