Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our paints
We recommend ordering samples to test colours in your actual space. Lighting and surrounding colours can dramatically affect how a paint looks. Our £5.99 sample pack includes three paintable peel-and-stick samples you can move around the room to see the true colour before committing.
Our paints cover up to 14 square metres per litre per coat, compared with around 10 for typical cheaper paints. Measure each surface (height × width), allow two coats, and use the paint calculator on any product page for an accurate estimate. We recommend ordering 10% extra and keeping it sealed for touch-ups.
Wall & Ceiling Paint launches in Dead Matt and Matt; Kitchen Wall Paint and Bathroom Wall Paint launch in Matt only. All other specialist paints launch in Matt and Satin. Choose Matt for a restrained sheen or Satin for a smooth lustre on non-wall surfaces.
Yes. A £5.99 sample pack is available for every colour, supplied in Dead Matt. Samples can be pre-ordered now for dispatch in week 2 of November. Full tins, toolkits and bundles ship from mid November.
We make specialist paints for walls and ceilings, kitchen and bathroom walls, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, trim and woodwork, radiators, furniture, flat-pack furniture, uPVC and composite, garage doors, garden furniture, fences and plant pots. Each product page explains suitable surfaces and preparation. If you're unsure, contact us and we'll help you choose.
Our paints are Ultra-low VOC: they contain a maximum of 15 g/L of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), well below 30 g/L. This describes VOC content, not a guarantee of hazard-free use; ventilate during painting and follow the product guidance.
Every order is sent by Parcelforce 24hr Tracked, so you can follow your parcel to your door. Delivery costs £4, and is free on orders over £75 and on complete 3-sample packs. In-stock toolkits ordered before midday are dispatched the same day.
No. Every tin is made on demand and tinted to order for you, so we are unable to accept returns of paint. Order samples first to be sure of your colour.
Yes, within 30 days of delivery, if the toolkit is unopened. Toolkits are sold as a single toolkit, so once any item has been used the rest of the toolkit cannot be returned. Return postage is paid by you.
We will send a replacement for the specific faulty item. Email hello@cameroncolours.co.uk with your order number, which item or items are faulty, and photos showing the problem.
