Your Colour, Mixed Perfectly
Getting the exact right colour can make or break a project. At DIY Hardware, our paint mixing service takes the guesswork out of it. Bring in a colour code, a swatch, or even a physical sample, and we will mix it to match.
Professional Paint Mixing & Tinting
We stock and mix Duram and Plascon paints across a wide range of colours and finishes. Whether you are refreshing a bedroom, repainting the exterior of your home, or tackling a kitchen makeover, our in-store team will help you find the right product and mix the perfect shade.
We also carry Tjhoko Paint (ideal for chalk and creative finishes), Woodoc (wood finishes and sealants), Rustoleum (spray paint and protective coatings), and Zinsser (primers and specialist coatings) — ready to take off the shelf.
How the Process Works
- Bring in your colour code (e.g. Pantone, RAL, Plascon/Duram reference) Or bring a swatch, fabric sample, or physical item to match
- Our team will select the closest match and mix it for you
- Mixing is done while you wait, no need to come back
Not Sure What Paint to Choose?
Our staff have real experience with paint, they have helped with everything from timber staining to exterior weatherproofing. Here are a few pointers:
- Interior walls: use a washable matt or satin finish for easy cleaning
- Kitchens and bathrooms: choose a moisture-resistant enamel or satin finish
- Exterior walls: a weatherproof product like Duram Weatherproof or Armatex is essential in Cape Town's climate
- Wood surfaces: Woodoc sealers and finishes protect and enhance timber beautifully
