Samples

• Customers can try out a small amount of the actual color (or a variety)
• Provides a $5 coupon to use on their purchase of the final color (encourages them to try a sample, but also to return to purchase their paint to receive a discount)
• Can explain this another way – sample is basically free when they come back and buy their paint since they get $5 off on paint purchase upon return

Choosing Product: (start with best paint)\

• All are paint and primer in one
• Titanium dioxide – more expensive, bright white, better quality/coverage
• New colorants are lower odor, helps with blocking, better color (bolder/brighter), better hide
• Dark and very bright colors often need a bit more work to cover as they are mixed in neutral bases that are a bit more transparent (allowing for more colorant to be added) 

Valspar Optimus

• EXTERIOR ONLY
• best quality
• anti-fade – even in direct sunlight
• easiest to apply (formulated for easier application) – feels less thick when using it
• best for rolling
• best flow level
• best durability and scrubability
• best coverage
• best stain resistance
• self-leveling formula
• most crisp/sharp colors
• zero VOC/low odor
• almost 2X as thick as Royal line (2mL coverage/paint film when dry)

Valspar Aspire

• INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR
• long lasting color
• nice finish
• excellent coverage (more hide than with C&K)
• zero VOC/lower odor
• gaps between resins are smaller than with C&K – so better coverage
