Accurate Colour time after time
Bristol’s True Colour Matching System can create your own unique colour. It will match a flat solid colour sample (no less than the size of a 20 cent coin), and tint that colour into the product of your choice. This system is great for matching, fabric, tiles and other features. If you need more of the same colour down the track, let us know so we can save it for you for up to four months, providing a consistent match for when you next purchase.

Bristol can also tint our paints to match most competitor colours, with over 50 000 popular colour formulas in our database.

Do’s and Don’ts

Do

  2. 2. Work new brushes back and forth across your fingers to remove loose bristles.
  3. 3. Follow instructions on the paint can for application.
  4. 4. Load the brush evenly and sufficiently by dipping it only halfway into the can and tapping it against the top edge of the can to remove any excess.
  5. 5. Apply paint evenly and fully with smooth, short strokes.
  6. 6. Paint from the top surface and work down to the bottom.
  7. 7. If painting timber, brush in the direction of the grain..
Don't
  1. 1. Don’t stir the paint with a brush, use a stirring stick.
  2. 2. Don’t let brushes soak in water, solvent or paint for prolonged periods of time. The brush will become floppy.
  3. 3. Don’t use a large brush to paint small pipes or narrow strips as this will cause the brush to fishtail (split).
