2. After useCleaning After Final Use- Cleaning your brushes and rollers immediately after their final use ensures they can be reused for multiple projects, saving you money and reducing waste. Cleaning- 1. Remove Excess Paint- Scrape off excess paint into container for future projects. 2. Use Paint Thinner-- Use a paint thinner to clean brushes and rollers. 3. Reuse Paint Thinner- Allow the paint solids to settle and reuse the thinner by pouring the clear liquid into another container. Responsible Disposal- Dispose of the remaining solids and used thinner at a hazardous waste facility. Do not pour any solvent-based paint, paint thinner or wash water down the drain or onto the ground. Do not flush paint down the drain, including when cleaning painting tools

3. StoringStoring & Responsible Disposal Do not use or store paint in extreme temperatures and protect from frost. Whenever possible, reuse, recycle, or donate leftover paint. Find local services at mywaste.ie or consider advertising paint locally—many good causes need it to brighten community spaces. Dispose Responsibly- Never pour paint or waste washings down drains or sinks. Follow instructions at mywaste.ie to recycle empty packs. Reuse Roller Cages- Remove sleeves and store cages in a dry, dust-free place. If brushes or sleeves cannot be cleaned or reused, dispose of them in general waste to avoid recycling issues. Paint Washings- Collect used brush cleaner in a container; don't pour it into drains or on the ground. Let solids settle, pour off clear liquid into another container for reuse or disposal. Dispose of remaining solids and used cleaner at a hazardous waste facility. Do not flush paint down drains, including when cleaning tools.
