Paint Tints

CAL-TINT ®️ 830 Colorants are universal colorants designed to have broad compatibility in trade sales, water-based and solvent-based paints. The colorant is packaged in 16 oz. squeeze bottles for on-the-job tinting.

CAL-TINT ®️ 830 Colorants are rigidly controlled and disperse easily and completely in most trade sales paint bases, with few, if any, adjustments in formulation. However, compatibility should be rechecked after any changes in paint base formulation, because this is a key to color fidelity.
