FAQs
The best way to test paint samples is by painting your chosen paint colour on a piece of paper and pinning this to different areas of your chosen room. This allows you to understand and see how the colour changes as the light within the room changes throughout different stages of the day.
Paint tester pots are also perfect for when you need to touch up a smaller area, but a full pot of paint will be overkill. This might be for a scuff on your corridor wall or for covering up repaired damage, such as a polyfilled hole.
Professional decorators or trades people may also find that paint sample pots are well suited for showing off options to clients and helping them to visualise what a paint or finish will look like on a surface.
If you’re using sample pots to help you decide on a colour or finish, it can be useful to pick up a couple of similar pots. This will let you compare swatches of the paints and save you from multiple online or instore visits.
We have a wide selection of paint sample pots available, so you’re sure to find the right paint or finish for the job at hand. Our paint samples also come in a large array of colours, so click through to the brand you want and select the colour you're looking for.
