Shipping & Delivery
Shipping & Delivery Policy
We take great care in how every order is prepared, packed, and coordinated for shipment. Because our materials are often ordered for time-sensitive architectural and construction projects, we encourage customers to review this policy carefully and place orders with sufficient lead time to account for unexpected delays, errors, or other logistics issues.
Order Processing
Orders are generally processed within 2–4 business days, based on the standard fulfillment timeline provided by our third-party logistics partner. Processing includes order review, packing, and carrier pickup or freight appointment coordination. Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays are not considered business days.
During periods of elevated order volume, holidays, or carrier congestion, processing times may extend beyond this estimate. While we work closely with our fulfillment partner to maintain consistent processing times, processing may occasionally be affected by fulfillment capacity or other operational constraints beyond our control. Please note that orders requiring custom or non-stock pigments may be subject to additional procurement lead time of up to 7–10 business days prior to processing. We will always endeavor to fulfill sooner where possible, but this cannot be guaranteed — please contact our team at [email protected] to confirm pigment availability before placing a time-sensitive order.
We understand that our materials are often specified for projects with firm deadlines. For this reason, we strongly recommend placing orders with sufficient lead time prior to your project start date. Even when orders are processed and released on time, logistics disruptions are not uncommon, including missed pickups, delayed tracking activity, routing issues, misplaced shipments, and warehouse or carrier scheduling constraints. Under no circumstances shall we be liable for project delays of any kind, whether resulting from processing times, pigment procurement, carrier performance, stock availability, or any other cause. Planning material procurement well in advance is the sole responsibility of the customer.
If you are working within a tight timeline, expedited shipping options may be available at checkout through our third-party rate tool. Please note that expedited shipping, where available, applies only to carrier transit time after the shipment has been released for pickup and does not shorten order processing time.

Storage & Handling After Delivery
Once delivered, products must be stored, handled, and protected appropriately in accordance with all product instructions and applicable project conditions. We are not responsible for product performance issues, spoilage, or damage resulting from improper storage, improper handling, environmental exposure, unsuitable jobsite conditions, or misuse.
Coverage Estimates & Quantity Calculator
Quantity recommendations generated by our coverage calculator are based on coverage ratios observed and tested in our own workshop under controlled application conditions. These figures are intended as a general planning guide only.
Actual coverage will vary depending on applicator technique, application thickness, substrate texture and porosity, number of coats, and environmental conditions on site. Applying material thinner or thicker than our reference conditions will result in coverage that differs from the calculator estimate.
Before placing your order, we strongly recommend reviewing the Coverage Summary on each product page to confirm that you are comfortable with the stated coverage ratios and that they are appropriate for your specific project and application method. Customers remain responsible for confirming required quantities based on their specific substrate, application method, and project conditions. We are not responsible for material shortages or overages resulting from differences in application technique or site conditions.
Final Sale / Order Changes
All products are final sale. Orders may not be canceled, returned, or exchanged once placed or once processing has begun, including due to change of mind, design revisions, over-ordering, scheduling issues, or project delays.
If a product arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, and the issue is reported within the required timeframe with appropriate supporting documentation, we will review the matter and determine the appropriate remedy, if applicable. Any remedy provided will be limited to replacement, refund, or credit for the affected product only.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our liability for any claim relating to an order, shipment, delivery, or product is limited strictly to the purchase price of the affected product only.
