    Conversion charts for paint.

    Hi, while looking for some paint no's I found this site. A lot better than many. All the major paints are covered.



    Just used it and found it to be perfect.

                Hi Tim

                Are you using it on your phone? If so you only see the AK tile but if you swipe left you get to each one individually. I had the same reaction on my phone when I first saw it.

                Below are a couple of screenshots from using it on my laptop - much better (using Chrome BTW). The blurriness is down to me shrinking it down to get it all on the screen in one go.

                Hope that helps.

                        Safari on an iPad should request the non-mobile version of the web site by default. If it seems to be giving you a mobile version anyway, then once the page finishes loading, you can tap the symbol on the left in (in! not to the left of) the address bar so that a menu pops out. In that, you should see a choice to request the desktop site if Safari thinks it has a mobile version (or vice versa).

                        This may not work, of course, because many web site makers try to be too clever for their own good.
