Re: Custom Color Matching
Nice
Sometimes I like to box all my latex flats together, and call it "primer". |

Re: Custom Color Matching
My old boss used to make me box all of the old paint together to make primer,he told me "do not buy primer untill all the old stuff is gone".
I never figured out how to make tan out of purple, or off white out of grey, so I usually just threw it away. My house and the homes of my friends and family have all been painted with mis-tints and leftovers. My wife gets pissed about it and tells me she wants to pick her own color not someone elses leftover kitchen paint. Too bad for her, paint is too expensive for me, I will stick with the mis-tints and leftovers. |
