1. Size. Our product is a 12"x12" repositionable square.

2. Texture. Small paint chips are digitally printed, Big Paint Chips are real paint.

3. Material. Small chips are paper, Big Paint Chips are vinyl stickers which can be adhered to any smooth surface.

Since they are painted with real paint, Big Paint Chips are vulnerable to water damage, burnishing, and scratching the finish just like a painted wall. They are as durable as premium wall paint.

The paint used is tinted by an official representative retailer of the paint manufacturer. Quality colour checks are done by Big Paint Chip and we do all we can to ensure these colours are accurate.

Big paint Chip Inc has tested many substrates and selected a product which you can trust.

The adhesive used is water based, low tack, and is designed to be applied to walls and to be repositionable. It will not damage the wall, leave a residue, or burnish paint finishes when applies to a properly painted wall which has had time to cure.

If you have painted recently, make sure the paint has cured; this takes usually about two weeks after painting. Paint can be dry, but not cured to a hard finish until after a few weeks, especially if it is a dark colour. The Chip will pull off loose or uncured paint. If you are unsure, test the area with painter's or masking tape.
