Our paint department is pleased to provide you with the series of paint which just celebrated its 25th anniversary!  Made by Home Hardware here in Ontario, it gives you a “no quibble guarantee” – "if you are not satisfied with the performance of this product, and providing you have followed the label instructions, return the unused portion with a proof of purchase, for full refund or replacement of product.  Guarantee does not include the cost of labour in the application  of any paint or stain."

The Designer series is our top of the line paint – 100% acrylic & specially formulated for ease of application, durability, easier flow and to resist scuffing.  Available in Suede, Silk and Matte finishes that are entirely washable.

With over 2700 colours already available – we can also colourmatch any colour you bring into us.   Our unique colourmatch system gives us the ability to store your colour, with your colour name, in your customer file – able to be retrieved with the push of a button.  This is especially beneficial to clients with large or multiple projects.

And don’t forget the Beauti-tone Prestige Card!  Whenever you purchase a gallon of Beautitone paint, have your card stamped.  After purchasing 6 gallons – your next one is FREE!

Varathane Premium Wood Stains -
"New Soya Oil vs. Linseed"
"There are now two main types of oils used as a base for stains.  Previously, most oil stains were made with linseed oil.

NEW Varathane Premium Wood Stains are made with ultra-clear soya oil.

Soya allows the true beauty of wood to show through, where linseed oil mutes or covers up the purity of the wood.

Soya oil has two advantages:

Deeper Penetration:
P Better grain enhancement
P Richer colour presentation
Clearer Colour:
P Does not contribute unwanted colour to the stain
P Richer, cleaner, brighter colours
