How to Avoid a Mess When Pouring Paint


Dripping paint


Whenever you pour paint out of a can and into a bucket, there is likely to be a mess. Ron offers two easy ways to avoid this.


To use a plastic pouring spout just take the lid off the paint can and fit the liner inside the can rim. When you pour, there are no drips, no mess and much greater accuracy.

Replacement lid with spout
A second option is actually a replacement lid for a one-gallon can. Remove the standard lid, pop the new one on and tap it in place. Now, simply unscrew the cap and pour. When you're finished, screw the cap back on and you've got an airtight storage container.
