Going on Tour with the Paint Warrior: A UK Adventure

From May 13th to 15th, Carlson Paint & Paper had the incredible opportunity to tag along with none other than Kevin Tingley, widely known in the decorating world as the "Paint Warrior." Touring across the United Kingdom, Kevin introduced his exciting new line of professional paint brushes and tools, and we were proud to be part of the journey.

The tour kicked off in Twickenham, where decorators from all over gathered to meet Kevin, test out the new brushes, and share techniques. Next, we rolled into Farnborough, where the energy was high and the response to the tools was overwhelmingly positive. We wrapped things up in Reading, connecting with even more tradespeople who value quality and craftsmanship as much as we do.

Kevin’s new brushes are designed by painters, for painters—and after getting our hands on them, it’s clear they’re built for performance. From smooth cut-ins to flawless finishes, these tools reflect the same dedication to quality we bring to every job at Carlson Paint & Paper.

Beyond the tools, this tour was all about community. We connected with painters, decorators, and influencers who share a passion for the trade and a commitment to elevating the standards of professional painting. Being part of this tour wasn’t just about trying out new gear—it was about celebrating the craft.

Stay tuned as we continue putting the Paint Warrior line to work on real-world jobs back home on Long Island. And if you haven’t checked out Kevin Tingley’s new products yet, we highly recommend giving them a try—because the right tools truly make all the difference.
