Please my phone screen malfunctioned. I am continuing the original post here.
The demand for paint is inexhaustible. Landlords and tenants alike would love to paint their buildings. As an entrepreneur, you can tap into this industry and make a fortune out of it. So how do you start a paint manufacturing business?
The first thing you have to understand is that paint production is a highly technical process that involves lots of chemical reactions. So you have to go get trained on the working on the chemicals and equipment used in paint production. Note that for a start, you can begin with very basic equipment like buckets and turning sticks.
Next is to do a market survey in the kind of paint that is commonly used in your location. There are different kinda if paints ranging from emulsion, oil paint, etc. You have to be sure of what you are producing and the needs of your target market. Next is to get a site for your paint business. For a start, you don't need a big shop. You can conveniently start in your backyard and grow from there.
And viola start your paint production business.

Tips on starting a paint production business.
1. Do it yourself. If you have the skills and equipment, doing it yourself is always the best option. You have complete control over the quality of your product and can be sure that it will be exactly what you want it to be.
2. Find an established company to work for. Many companies will hire new employees and train them themselves, but if you want to start your own business, working for an established company can be a great way to gain experience and learn about the industry before taking the plunge into independent production.
3. Get help from friends and family members who are already in business. In many cases, these people have already invested time and money into their own businesses, so they are more likely to give advice that is based on experience rather than just opinions or hearsay from others who may or may not be trustworthy sources of information when making decisions about your new venture.
4. Research local markets before investing any money in equipment or premises (or both). Make sure there's enough demand for what you're making so you won't end up having to work many hours each day just trying to find enough orders to pay for everything else required.

The first thing you need to do is make sure that you have a good idea of what you want to do. You can't just start painting houses and expect to succeed. You need to know your market and how much money you can make.
You also need some sort of business plan, which will tell you how much money you need and how long it takes to get started. You may even want to start with a friend or two so that they can help you out if things don't go well.
Once you have your business plan and an idea of what kind of business you want, the next step is finding out where to get supplies for your business. This is especially important if you're planning on selling your products online because there are a lot of different types of paints out there and knowing which ones work better for each type is very important in order for them not to be wasted on customers who can't use them properly or aren't satisfied with their results."
