    Never heard of this before! What a great resource! Does anyone know if it’s all flat paint or are there semi gloss etc. Thanks!

    I use to get this paint and it was such a blessing. I was so thankful for it cause paint isn’t cheap. I repainted my who 1600 sq ft house for free. Thank you so very much for doing this Escambia County. Plus it’s so much better than putting it in the ground

    Is it interior or exterior? Sounds like a great plan.

    Do you have to be a Florida resident? I’m in Alabama near the state line.

    How many of these can you get for free at one time?

    “So we can’t get recycling right but we blend paint???”

    Not the same people.

    Blended paint is Escambia County Solid Waste. Recycling is ECUA. Two different government agencies.

    So we can’t get recycling right but we blend paint??? Serious planning and management issues
