Humorous Tweet about our sponsor, Haymes Paint:

 

Haymes Paint.

 

(Just bumping this thread to give Haymes Paint a bit more value from its sponsorship dollars. If it's not going to get exposure from the MFC, Demonland will have to do.)

Maybe a new sponsored podcast? Channel the voice of 'Uncle Doug' (for those of you whom can remember)... Brought to you by Haymes Paint. Yes ladies and gentlemen Haymes Paint - paint the town red and blue.

I reckon they're getting their money's worth out of the club website 'All of the Melbourne Goals' segment this year!!!

(They're also getting their money's worth out of my current renovations, too!)

The paint on the laundry ceiling of my apartment is already peeling off in large flakes despite allegedly having been redone before we moved in. Clearly an inferior brand of non-Melbourne-sponsoring paint. You'd never get such failure from our esteemed friends at Haymes Paint!

Only one small outlet in my part of the world (Canberra), but I make the effort to buy Haymes whenever I need paint.  Excellent product and worth the effort ....... and thanks Haymes for being long-term sponsors of our Club!

I'd buy Haymes but in NNSW it's hard to get and certainly impossible with the member discounts.

For full effect, they should rebrand as Harmes Paint 

The painter we use at work says  "is very good quality" and Pete's the best painter in town. (I kid you not)

God it’s hard sponsoring a club, fans don’t want any noise outside of the game, you need people to buy yo sh it… signage is needed and you get dudded like that. ??

Never heard of them and never noticed their logo at any of our games. Their marketing team needs to lift.

I’ve painted a few murals with Haymes paint, and it really is a very good quality product. The Port Melbourne guys are really nice and very knowledgeable.

Pretty sure they sponsor all the quarter time/half time activities the Robbo hosts like kicking the footy into the giant paint tin or whatever else they do. They used to do the speckies until some guy almost necked himself

Bump, this is what I wrote in another thread and no I don't have any other connection with the company.

Great Sponsor, great product. Get behind a Victorian company.

I've been sprucing up the property recently and the double discount has been saving me a lot of dollars. Sign up for a Haymes discount card and then show your MFC members card.

Yes I live in Ballarat but seriously the product they produce is awesome and at a seriously competitive price.

 

The number of memes I currently have in my head involving Haymes white paint, which would in-turn result me in being banned (if created and posted) is frightening.

Or he could change his listed name for a week to James Haymes! ?

Warning as good as Haymes is, this product is not for human consumption.  It is also recommended to keep away from small children.

Being in the business of specifying paint brands/colours, Haymes stands out for coverage and colour saturation. Great product and loyal sponsor.

Might have to make use of that coverage and saturation to paint my boys bedroom in navy blue with red V's.  My laundry needs a paint too, so might give that the same treatment.

Heck, if we win a premiership, I'll paint the whole of [censored] Brisbane red and blue in quality Haymes paint.  Making me think that Haymes should officially mix up and brand a MFC paint range of red and blue paints (they can forget about the white used in those pox clash strips consigned to the garbage).

I thought they already did.  Maybe it was a pigment of my imagination.

 

Workman doing renovation at my house use Haymes Paint. They said it's the best quality.

I personally have used their Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau on the outside deck. Comes up a treat and lasts much longer with more "lustre"than Cabots or British paints that I have used before.

What a coincidence.

I directed my on call work crew to strip the Cabots they just put on my deck at my chalet at Thredbo and replace with the Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau.

Then asked them to do the same for my little shack at Wye River.
