We know there are those of you out there who love color and paint as much as we do. And there’s nothing quite like the feeling of browsing through paint colors—whether you’re purchasing for a project or just looking, it doesn’t matter. There’s just something so satisfying and even calming about it. And so, it is exactly for Pinoy color and paint lovers that this list is made. Check out these Boysen color treats you can get your hands on to hopefully bring a little bit more joy into your life:
1. Boysen Fan Decks
Hundreds of paint colors at your fingertips—that’s what a fan deck is. For those new to painting, fan decks are paint swatches collated together. They are a reference tool used most often by interior designers, architects, and professional painters but DIYers can find them helpful too!
And yes, there are Boysen fan decks, of course! Boysen has four fan decks and these are the Boysen Color Palette (1,320 colors), Boysen Colorizer Series G (135 colors), Boysen Medley (250 colors), and Virtuoso Fan Deck (123 colors). You can find details on each in this blog post: How to Use the Boysen Paint Color Fan Decks.
As to where you can get any of the above, the most convenient way is to head over to the Boysen website (Boysen.com.ph). Click on “Buy Online” in the menu tab and then on “Color Swatches.” (Go straight there by clicking here.) Add to cart to your heart’s content!
2. Boysen 200 mL Sample Pots
Paint at the hardware store come in pretty large containers—typically 4-liter and 16-liter buckets and cans. But what if you want to try a few paint colors out first before committing to one? This is where the Boysen 200 mL sample pots come to your rescue. Practical and not to mention super cute too. We won’t blame you if you feel the urge to start collecting them.
So, where can you find these adorable sample pots? If you want to see the colors in person, head to The Color Library by Boysen. There you’ll see actual swatches of the paint colors—there are more than 1,300—that are available for mixing in-store for you to take home in 200 mL or 1 L containers. If you haven’t been to The Color Library yet, you definitely should. It’s a color experience all on its own and just a few steps away from Ikea.
You can also purchase these Boysen 200 mL sample pots at the Boysen website (Boysen.com.ph). Click on“Buy Online” in the menu tab and then the “Color Samples” option (go straight there by clicking here) to see the more than 300 paint colors available for online purchasing.
A 200 mL pot of paint can cover approximately 1.25 to 1.50 square meters in one coat. This gives you enough coverage to visualize colors in different lighting conditions and how they will respond with your fixtures.
3. Boysen App
If you love paint colors and don’t have the Boysen app installed yet, you’re missing out. The Boysen app has a ton of features that both newbie and professional painters will find useful. It has a paint calculator that estimates the amount of paint you’ll need for a paint project, for example, as well as product guides and paint schedules for all the Boysen products.
For color lovers, Color Collection lets you browse through more than 4,000 different paint colors available for mixing at Boysen Mix & Match stations. And in Color Capture you can snap a photo of a color you like and this tool will give you a selection of the closest Boysen paint color matches.
If you enjoy using Boysen colorants, the Mix Your Colors tool lets you see what shades will appear when you mix different Boysen Latex Colors and Boysen Permacoat Latex paint together. Sounds cool, right? Download the app via the App Store for iOS users and the Play Store for Android users.
