Flints is proud to be partnering with Onward Enterprises, a social organisation based at 2 sites in Norfolk, supporting people with mental health issues, adults with learning difficulties, and on the Autism spectrum. Onward Enterprises provide these opportunities to people so that they may benefit from all that the world of work can offer, and who otherwise risk missing out.

Onward are repackaging an increasing number of our products, including glitter, fluorescent powders, and pearlescents. Ben and John found the visit inspiring and we look forward to continuing our growing partnership.

Thank you to Jono, Rachel, Julie, and for their wonderful hospitality and we look forward to seeing their new panto next year.

We sell lots of different black paints so we thought we’d compare some of our most popular ones, and explain a little bit about them.

At last, we've been able to get a solution in place! We know it's been a challenge, but we are so happy to be able to offer this new service to our Flints fans who may be slightly further afield!

With only 2 weeks to go until the big day, we thought why not show you how you can decorate with ease, making a terrifyingly boo-tiful prop with only 2 products! Whether you're throwing a party, want to make your house inviting for trick or treaters, or just love spooky season, you can easily recreate this scary scene for yourself!

Things you didn’t know we sold at Flints: Casting Edition!

Seeing as our catalogue is stocked full of so many amazing products, there are some you may not even realise we stock! So we are continuing our brand new series called: ‘things you didn’t know you could get from Flints’! Throughout the series we take you department by department, showing you products in our range you may not have realised you could get from us, or that have recently come back in stock!

For our second instalment of this series, we thought why not take a look at some of our casting products as we have so many to choose from, and a whole bunch you may never have even known about!

🔩New in from SPAX🔩

At Flints, we love SPAX screws - we reckon they make some of the most advanced screws in the world.

The outstanding feature of the SPAX is its ground serrations - in our experience there has never been a screw which enters the material with such ease while exhibiting such holding power.

If used and removed carefully, you should be able to reuse them - making them ideal for touring!

So what are you waiting for? Try our SPAX today and see for yourself! 🔩🔩
