How not to buy paint twice
Did you know that 40% of all paint sold is being purchased for a second time because of a color mismatch or the color wasn’t liked? Here are several things you can do prevent this from happening to you:
1. Never purchase paint based on a small paint chip. You need to see a MINIMUM of 8″ x 8″ of a color to see it’s color character or you’ll be in for a surprise (and not in a good way!)
2. Evaluate a color in the light of different times of day and in different weather conditions. Color changes throughout the day and looks different on a sunny day than it does on a cloudy or rainy day, really!
3. Don’t decide on a color when you’ve only seen it on one wall. If you purchase a tester, paint it on an inexpensive white poster board that can be moved around and evaluated on different walls before you decide.
