For those who paint traps

When ya thin with acetone, what kind of container do you store the leftover rustoleum paint/acetone mixture?
Thanks
Rob

Clean empty acetone cans or clean empty paint cans. It is difficult to recover the paint that settles in the acetone cans if you are storing it for more than a few weeks.

5 gallon bucket.Needs to have rubber seal like a bulk motor oil bucket.

Look at Gamma lids Little pricey but work real well on a 5 gal bucket. Tractor supply, farm&fleet etc.

I only paint conis. I put them in a plastic tote, toss in a 1/2 to 3/4 gal of 50/50 acetone/paint and slosh around till covered. I store my left over mix back in the paint can and a couple mason jars

Doesn't answer the question but . . . . .

For those that dip their traps in paint what color do you use ?

Spray paint most of my traps, I don't dip just spray them either flat black or flat dark brown

Black

You can paint them high viz yellow if you like as they will be covered when set. Some do pait them bright colors so they can see at a distance whether or not they are sprung or dug up.

White

Dark brown, I only do my water and Fisher traps and implements

back in the 90's I used Flat black from Wal mart . Spray paint was how I started to get away from = Logwood die. Then I found Formula 1
