Rental house shorted me on paint, used the trim color for the walls

Landlord skimped on the cheap stuff and gave me one gallon of the wall color for a 12x14 bedroom. I figured I'd just blend it with the trim paint we had left over, thought no big deal. Two coats later it looked like a pale pink bandage on a beige wound, lol. My wife walked in and said 'did you even look at the swatch?' Now I'm stripping it all off with a $30 heat gun that smells like burning regret. Has anyone else tried mixing leftover paints just to save a trip to the store?
