Thank you for not making this a 15 minute long video.

This is great, much better than my typical method of accidentally kicking the full can down the stairs.

😆Down the stairs, eh? I specialize in a type of can punt, wherein it flies in to the wall 🙄

@fordprefect4345 Жыл бұрын

I did that around midnight in a then illegal state of mind listening to the large full of paint bounce down the stairs in slow motion thinking so far so good till it got to the bottom then a sound I never heard before but imediatley recognised and there was the content all over the carpet. Nah, rolled another one covered the lot with wet newspapers so it wouldn't dry and went to bed. Next morning thought about how to rescue the carpets then came up with the idea. Went to hire place and hired wet carpet cleaner that soaks and sucks at the same times with the provided detergents............. Couldn't believe it worked and the machine didn't get wrecked. Happy days.

Good tip. One additional note...even on a new can of paint, wipe the top rim with a paper towel before you stick the tape on it. Mine had enough residue that the tape didn't stick well and it leaked. Wiping the rim and sealing the tape with good thumb pressure made it leak proof!

I have been professionally repairing house for a long time, including painting too. This tip in pouring paint out is the simplest and best trick in preventing an outcome I have ever seen. Thanks.

@webuyart 11 ай бұрын

This was seriously one of the best tips I've seen over the years on KZfaq. It's always been a pain in the butt dealing with paint getting on the rim of the can - or, on the side of the can - while pouring into a smaller can or paint tray. The nail-hole in the trough on the can's rim never quite works. And, lastly, your solution keeps most - if not all - paint from clogging up the rim which in turn will create a better seal when placing the lid back on the can. This will undoubtedly make your paint last significantly longer. Again, many thanks.

This was the perfect tip that I needed and was looking for because I won’t be using the whole gallon of paint at once and was concerned about closing the lid with no mess. This was the first video that came up in my search and low and behold it’s Danny Lipford from today’s homeowner and I listen to the show every weekend on the radio and its very enjoyable and educational. That’s an automatic subscribe and like from me! Thanks!

I love this tip. Thank you, it's a great idea, simple but effective. I purchased these vinyl things that attach to the groove in the can but I have to either remove it to put the top on so the paint on the inside of the can where you poured it out doesn't dry or put a damp rag over the whole thing. Then you remove it when your done it is another thing that you need to clean.

I have been trying to figure out how to not wreck the cans for so many years and tried this a few days ago and just came back to say thank you!!! It's not like I don't have tape handy and this made cleanup so much easier.
