Correcting a color mix

Leave a Comment

How many times have we experienced this problem – a color mix not exactly as we wanted? We start mixing a color, find it is too dark, then add white to lighten it. Still too dark, so we do it again and again until we have a large pile of paint.

Watch as Bill shows you how to do it. In effect, he starts all over again by moving the incorrect color to the side and taking just a small amount and mixes it with his white. He minimizes the error and moves on as if nothing happened.
