Buy Right

Determining the right amount of paint for your next project can be tricky. There are many types of paint with different properties that determine how much you will need. Our six questions to ask when buying paint make it simple to ensure you have enough while minimizing waste.

Store Right

While an unopened can of paint could last for years if it is stored properly, unsealed cans may not keep as long. Whether you plan to use leftovers for touch ups or a future project, or even if you think you will get rid of your leftover paint later, follow these tips to keep your paint in good condition so someone else can use it or recycle it.

Use it Up

Before you break out the paintbrush and tape, see if you have any leftover paint that can save you a trip to the store. The best way to manage leftover paint is to use it. For more helpful ways to make the most of your paint, follow these tips.

Give it Away

If you can’t use up your leftover paint in good condition consider giving it away to others who can use it. Friends, relatives, community groups, and artists may be able to benefit from this useful and valuable resource.

PaintCare does not currently offer paint drop-off sites in your state. If you need to dispose of leftover paint and you don’t live in a state where we operate, you can still check our PaintCare site locator for disposal opportunities. When we learn about paint recycling opportunities we post them on the site locator.
