Is it possible to mix conventional tints into the wall paints Nos. 321 or 322?
No for warranty reasons and that conventional tints rely on the wall paint preservatives to do the job - AURO does not use any preservatives so it can not prevent spoilage that is introduced into the paint. This said, some people have successfully tinted our paints with conventional tints and it has worked for them; if you decide to give it a try, test a small amount first and let it dry on a piece of paper or cardboard to see if the final product look okay. Use the paint up fast and it is your own risk.
