TIP: When drying out paint form a container that is more than half full, line a sturdy cardboard box with a garbagebag. Alternate between pouring absorbent (sand or catlitter) & paint into the lined box until the paint container is empty**. Stir untill mixed. Finish the process by following steps 3 and 4 from above.
*Leaving the containers uncovered lets the trash hauler now that the paint has been hardened - otherwise it will likely not be picked up.
**Empty paint containers can be disposed of in your regular trash.
