    Thanks OP.

    Just ordered one with the gloss for £8.47 for store collection. Really pleased wanted to try one for ages. :j
  • This is probably a dim question but here goes - you can't use a normal tin of paint in these, can you? It has to be the special paint pod one, or one of the paint pod ones refilled with paint. So if I ordered the tin of gloss and got the paint pod free, I would still need a paint pod paint in order to use it?

    Im understand you can used other emulsion paint in them but you need to water it down slightly because the pod paint is thinner.I just called into my local store and they hadnt got the paint pods so she placed the order online for me to pick up while i was in the store ,should be there about thursday but she will ring me first.thank you op and the staff was pleased because they didnt know about this so i bet they all ordered one when i left the shop lol

    Hi, you will have to buy some of the paint to use with the paint pod so that you can re fill it, because the paint container is screwed onto the paint pod.Hope that helps lol :D

    So initially you have to buy one dulux pod tub of emulsion paint to get the container so you can keep re-filling it with watered down other brands of emulsion.(i get it now lol):o

    So- I am being thick here-it screws onto the top of the paint tin? How does it fit all sizes of tin (from 1.5l to 2.5 l?) Sorry for being a dimwit- can anyone explain it to me?

    Ignore me- looked at it better and realised that it is screw top plastic container!
    Btw- how eay are they to clean?
    lovin' this site!
