Three years ago, my wife and I moved into a new place and painted all the rooms except the bathroom. We decided it was time to finish the job (as we have bunch of guests coming over for a party soon).\r
\r
We decided on a sea and sky theme for the bathroom (light blue / dark blue plus clouds). Going into Pintchik, we had a bunch of questions:\r
1) Did we need primer?\r
2) What should we do about painting the steampipe?\r
3) How could we get a nice cloud effect?\r
\r
Our helper was super-friendly and spent about a half hour answering our questions, showing us how to achieve a tranlucent looking cloud, and making sure we had the right supplies.\r
\r
Lastly, he helped us save money - by figuring out which brand and the right quantity to buy.\r
\r
Did I mention that the mix custom paint colors on the spot.!! You just pick the colors you want, they have hundreds of color selectons on these strips of paper, and they mix in the store for you.\r
\r
In short, Pintchiks turned buying paint in super-fun event. I highly recommend them.\r
\r
Pros: great service, expert advice, great selection, fun atmosphere
