perfect timing mate, i need to add some tint into some white trim paint for my window and picture rail trims... too easy once you're shown and I like how you double shake the bucket each time you pour out the paint to stop it from over spill or dripping, will be using that top tip as well... thanks again, hope the shoulder is holding up in this winter cold mornings
Is there any online service that sells tint? I am having a heck of a time finding it for personal use locally. It seems like most paint shops where I live aren't prepared to sell it, only mix it to products. They obviously have tint for the machines, but no pricing / not for sale,so the staff is usually hesitant. If anyone knows of an affordable online shop that serves europe region please let me know :)
for oil paint you would in most cases use mineral spirits. Some specialist paints in auto and marine sometimes can use their own special solvents, but rarely in home-use paints.. Always use the same solvent as your paint already uses. It should say on the label somewhere.
Any paint shop or hardware that sells paint will be able to provide the tint. They are now charging for it but small price. If you have a color in mind you will just need that color for them to provide the tint,if your existing paint has a color already it's still possible to find what tint is in it and do some calculations to get your perfect color or something very close to what you want.
@@ThePa1nterhowto think I said before that my dad always taught me to do that. We did a lot of offices etc and you had to have consistency with shade. He had a great work ethic , like yourself, and was a grafter, like you. Take care mate

Good idea. Better to have extra than not enough, but this takes the risk out of having too much
Good on Yonga, been doing that since i was 14, 57 now. Still working well. chris
Cheers ,we are similar ages
Good sharing my friend
If your base is oil paint, would you still add water to the tint, or would you add something else?

Thanks for sharing, who can supply the tint and will the suppliers be able to know which tint colours will be necessary for the desired colour?

How is tint both water and oil based?
Thanks for the tip
No problem!
Ah the old boxing method. 👍
Simple for us painters but good sound advice for diy
