So I'm confused to what you are referring in the above statement. the only time I have seen anything like this is "boxing" but the contractor does that not the store. In the past 30 years or more, I haven't seen paint put in a container, mixed up, and then put back in the sale can in any store. The only mistakes are if the clerk uses the wrong base, types in wrong desired color, or the pigment dispersing machine is on the blitz. I can't see where is it possible to contaminate a new color from an prior mixed color. Next a label is slapped on and viola you have paint that matches your little sample card. The paint is mixed by shaking and then reopened to put a test blob on top of the lid. When done, the clerk securely puts the lid back on the can and sits it in the mixer/shaker unit. The correct color and amounts of pigment are shot into the base based on whether a quart or gallon, etc. Everyone that I have seen from SW, BM, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, etc all select the correct base for the color they are mixing then open and slide the can under the pigment dispersing machine and type in the desired color code. Whether I go to a paint store or a big box store, they all mix the same way and no one puts paint into a mixing machine that would allow contamination from prior use. I go early in the morning when the machines haven't been used much to ensure I don't get traces of someone else's pigment in my paint." I don't understand this comment. RE: comment made by the design group : "The only caution here is that since it is purchased from a big box store you have to beware that the machine mixing the paint aren't always "clean".
