How to make the most out of your paint and accessories
If you’re completing your painting project over a few days keep your paint fresh by simply putting the lid back on your tin and store in a cool, dry area.
Save your accessories for next time! Simply give them a good clean. If you’ve used water-based paint you can clean your brushes in a bucket of water to remove most of the paint, ready for use next time. Note: for solvent-based paint, the recommended solvent is required.
We're here to help you figure out how much paint you need for your project. No matter how big or small the job, we've got you covered.
Our expert support team can help with everything from choosing colour, what product is the most appropriate for your job or troubleshooting when something hasn’t gone your way.
