Seems everybody does, and it's not just on their walls. You probably have paint cans in your closet, on your basement shelves and in the garage. You're not alone. In 2003, the EPA estimated that in the U.S. alone, there were nearly one million gallons of leftover paint every day. That's more than 3.6 billion pounds of leftover paint polluting your environment and seeping into your ground water every year.

What can you do? The County holds "round-ups" where they'll dispose of it. They charge a lot and don't fix the problem! Even though they charge an upfront fee or "donation" at the time you drop it off, it still costs taxpayers 100's of thousands of dollars and the paint still isn't gone. The majority of it goes straight into a landfill here in Colorado.

What should you do? Recycle it! Take your leftover latex paint to GreenSheen. They will properly dispose of it through recycling. Plus, for a limited time, they will give you a credit toward the purchase of any new (recycled) paint from their large inventory. What else should you do? Demand recycled paint! Next time you paint, buy recycled paint. Next time you hire a painter, demand that he use recycled paint. GreenSheen hand selects its colors and blends latex paint in designer shades just like the original manufacturers. The difference? GreenSheen Paint saves up to 75% off retail and is environmentally friendly. Even on small jobs the savings add up.

That's probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think about recycled content paint. At GreenSheen that's the most common question. The answer is a definitive YES! It is not only good, it's often times better than virgin content paints and available at a fraction of the cost.

Have you ever looked at shades of a color from different manufacturers and liked one better? Not because it was a different shade of the color but because it was "nicer", "more brilliant", "deeper", or "more complex"? That's likely because one manufacturer uses different colorant than the next and thereby gets "better" colors. Because GreenSheen uses several different paint colors, rather than virgin colorants, to achieve their end product, their colors are often times described as being "nicer", "more brilliant", "deeper", and "more complex".

Many Government and "big job" contractors have used recycled content paints for years because of its environmental impact and cost savings. Now that it is becoming more widely available, decorators the world over are more commonly using it because of its wide range of "more complex" colors.

What can you do? Next time you buy paint, buy GreenSheen. Next time you hire a painter, demand that he use GreenSheen. The environmental impact is substantial and the cost savings are immediate and measurable. There is no down side! Even on small jobs the savings add up.
