And yes, the paint still has to go on the wall. To the customers and to the painters this is all about the paint, the colour, the decorating experience.
Having a paint supplier you can trust makes this process a bit easier. A good paint store is fully stocked with sundries, and carries at least a line or two of paint for every surface to be coated. Experienced and knowledgeable staff will help you quickly and get you out the door with the right colour.
Boyd’s Decorating Centre is one of these paint stores in the Toronto area. For about 40 years they have been servicing retail customers and Toronto Painters. They are well respected in the Toronto Painting Contacting community for their outstanding customer service and experience. They have been Ecopainting’s main supplier for the last few years. Often they were asked to prepare last minute large orders, match the difficult colours and they come through every time.
For example, most of the colours used on this commercial stripe painting project were created at Boyd’s.
To most customers it’s mainly about the colour. Prep-work, durability of the paint, warranty, speed and service, sure they are all important factors, but if the colour is wrong it all means nothing.
All paint cans leaving Boyd’s are checked and leave the store with the correct colour.
Boyd’s Decorating Centre is located North East in the Parkway Mall in Scarborough.

The Town of Orangeville has launched a graffiti art wall at the skatepark in Rotary Park.
The first one approved was a concept by three young local artists
Cam Courtney, Steve Boyd and Ilyan Balicki, along with some help from artist Derrick Gray.
According to the artists, the wall’s first message is freedom. The words freedom, voice, and uplift were created.
“Graffiti art is growing and it’s here to stay,” said Ilyan. He added that the imagery symbolizes freedom in classic graffiti art form.
The graffiti art wall is located between the skatepark and the Rotary Park pavilion.
Young people, aged 11-17, are encouraged to participate to showcase their artistic graffiti skills.
To sign up to participate in the creation of the Graffiti Art Wall, contact 519-940-9092 ext. 4106, or email youth@orangeville.ca
