Hi Everyone,

I have a bunch of gallon paint cans that are less than 1/2 full. I’m a bit short on space and would like to transfer the paint to something smaller. I found smaller cans, but they’re about $3 each and I don’t want to buy $30 worth of paint cans. Does anyone have any suggestions for something that will store the paint well? I was thinking mason jars.

Thanks,
Mike

Mason jars are good for keeping bits of paint for touch ups, lets you see the colour easily, and the re-sealable rubber keeps the paint fresh. The one problem is that glass breaks when it falls and can mess up a floor pretty good. I haven’t found anything else free or cheap to do the job, and would be interested if you think of anything. I’m out of good paint space too, but i think I’ll just junk the colours that I’ll never end up using.
