Paint is used to add color to a scene on a ship or building, and is used in the production of bludgeons and some items of furniture. Some areas, primarily shacks and other housing types, can only be painted by buying the paint dockside using the paint brush. Others can choose to order the paint and have it delivered to the hold, if that location has one.

The amount of paint needed for various ships and buildings can be found on their individual pages.
