How do you make these paints?
It's a pretty simple process, the key is making sure everything is dispersed evenly so that you get rich, smooth colours. The way we go about mixing them together is somewhat different to how it's usually done
What is Water+ and why does it work so well?
Unfortunately we can't tell you what it is as it's a company secret. To explain how it works is somewhat complicated but it involves utilising a crosslinking effect to extend your paint. This means in a nutshell that you can add it to paints to get ultra thin and ultra smooth layers without comprimising on opacity meaning less coats, you can continue adding it to make the paint more transparent.
It's one of those products where you really need to try it for yourself
How did you get started, starting a paint business isn't exactly a common occurance
Originally we weren't planning on it, we just wanted to make a cheaper paint set for ourselves since we used to go through quite a bit of paint. Turning it into a business was the next logical step...although we now have a rather expensive paint set.
Can I visit your factory?
Unfortunately we're not currently accepting visitors, but this may change in the future

How do you calculate your shipping?
We've weighed out our products and this is what the shipping is based on since it's a weight based system, this allows us to get you the best price possible
I need to change my order or address after I've placed it, what can I do?
Email us as soon as you can, we usually don't dispatch your order until the next working day so if you need to make a change we can always adjust it. If You need to add to your order, we'll invoice you seperately for the remaining difference
I still haven't received my package and it has been 4 weeks
We're sorry you still haven't received your order yet. While we do everything we can to make sure your order reaches you in a timely fashion but there's usually a good explanation for it
In the UK, We don't use a tracked service (Unless you order an awful lot of paint or request it at checkout) so it's likely that it's in a distribution centre somewhere, most of the time the parcel will come back to us and we can repackage it and send it out again. If however you still haven't got it, email us and we'll sort something out
For the Europe and the rest of the world, again we don't use a tracked service unless it's a lot of paint so it's likely that the parcel is stuck in customs. During peak times of the year (Christmas for example) some parcels have been delayed by almost 6 weeks.
Unfortunately there isn't much we can do when it comes to international post as we are at the mercy of the shipping companies and 99% of the time we never get the parcel back, If it still hasn't arrived after 6 weeks, please email us and we'll sort something out.
I'm an International/European customer and I've had to pay a customs charge to get my parcel released....
We're sorry that this has come as a bit of a surprise, however there are duties to be paid when exporting if you go over your countries import limit, unfortunately we cannot list every limit and they do change from time to time.
Since we don't collect taxes or fees at checkout on behalf of your local government and the fact that we won't know what the tax rates are, we're unable to add them ahead of time, this means that ultimately you, the customer is responsible for the charges and those charges are unfortunately beyond our control.
If you need to ask more questions on the matter, we can only recommend that you speak to your local post office or government representative who should be more than happy to answer your questions.
