How to Choose Your Colours When Ordering Paint

Every product on our website now includes a Colour Details box. You must fill this out before adding the item to your cart.

  • Want straight white? Just type white.
  • Want a specific colour? Enter the brand name and colour code (e.g., PPG 1234‑4, Benjamin Moore HC‑172, SICO 4173‑21). We’ll tint your paint to match that colour.

Where to Find Colour Options

1 – Online Colour Libraries

If you already know you want to browse colours online, here are some popular colour libraries. Just provide us with the brand and colour code when ordering:

SICO Colour Palette

SICO Colour Visualiser
PPG Paints Colour Visualizer

PPG Colour Game
Selectone Colour Info
Benjamin Moore Colours
Sherwin Williams Colours

Keep in mind: most screens are not colour‑calibrated, so the colour you see online may not match the final tinted paint.

2 – Best Method: In‑Person Colour Decks

The most accurate way to choose colours is by using a physical colour deck or visiting our store. You can browse our full colour displays and check out in‑store specials while you’re here.

Important: Colour Matching vs Direct Tinting

It’s always best to choose a colour from the same brand of paint you’re ordering.

Example: Choosing a SICO colour and tinting it into PPG paint may result in a colour that is slightly lighter or darker. Even within the same brand, different paint lines can produce small variations.

Why this happens

Every paint brand uses:

  • different bases
  • different tint formulas
  • different colourants

So a colour from one brand may not reproduce perfectly in another brand’s paint.

Refund Policy for Tinted Paint

Tinting is custom work. Because of natural variations between brands, bases, and colourants:

All tinted paint is non‑refundable unless the tinting error is directly our fault.

This is standard across the paint industry.
