Paint is available for individuals and groups to purchase for £1-2 per litre.

Stock at Community RePaint schemes does vary throughout the year depending on what paint has recently been passed on for reuse by local businesses, traders and/or waste contractors in the area.
If there are specific types or colours of paint you are interested in purchasing for your project, we recommend contacting the scheme directly ahead of visiting, to find out if they have the paint you’re looking for in stock.
If you need larger quantities (over 60 litres) of paint for a community project, you can also order our remanufactured paint from us centrally. Find out more here.
You can buy ReColour, our remanufactured paint, from Refurbs Flintshire. They are not a Community RePaint scheme so they do not collect or redistribute leftover paint from their local community.

ReColour is an interior emulsion paint available in 18 colours plus white and magnolia.
Please contact Refurbs Flintshire for available colours and prices, as these may differ from other outlets and Community RePaint schemes.
Note: you CANNOT drop off paint here for reuse. Refurbs Flintshire only stock ReColour paint for sale. To drop off paint, find your nearest drop-off point here.
