I use these empty cans to store thinned-out Behr paints and Varathane polyurethane ready for spraying. I use a small rubber mallet to carefully close the lids and after a few usages, the sides start to crush and twist inward. I have not had this happen to actual Behr, Varathane or Rust-Oleum 1 quart cans. These empty cans seem to have very thin walls.

Hello DoctorJ, Thanks for reviewing the metal paint bucket and lid. I’m sorry to hear the sides started to crush in. This isn’t the experience we want any of our customers to have. For further assistance, please feel free to reach out directly to our customer care team. Best, Roxana N.

Just what I needed. I had to paint them so they would be rushed through. But outside of that they were perfect.

Just like the ones you buy paint in. Some of my old paint is still good but the cans are rusting out so transferring to these.

Perfect for extra paint. Excellent to keep a matching sample for touch ups around your home. Same product as a normal paint can. All metal can. No handle.

I used this to store wood glue because the plastic bottle broke in the Winter’s cold. It worked well though it was challenging to get the glue at the bottom of the can because my hand fit snugly around the opening and the wooden craft sticks I was using were not quite sturdy enough for scooping the glue.

Quality paint can
I needed a small paint can with a lid to mix my own chalk paint. This can was good quality, and had a nice seal on the lid. It didn’t feel cheap or thin like others I’ve passed up on. You can’t go wrong with BEHR.

These small paint cans will be used to store the leftover paint in my huge 1-gallon containers, some of which are less than a quarter full. The size is perfect for my project and they look sturdy. Great purchase!

This paint can served the purpose of being able to paint my arbor on a ladder using a smaller can instead of my 5 gallon stock container. However, because the lip of the can is not coated/protected it rusts very quickly (2 days). Since it only took me a couple of days to complete my job, I just discarded the empty can. But, if you are planning to store paint/stain in this can for a longer period of time a rusting can will likely affect the quality of your paint/stain.

Paint can is very thin. Side of can near the top buckled from being tapped closed with a rubber mallet! I've never seen a paint can do that.

Works as Faraday Box
With the news coming out that car thieves are using amplifier technology to ping car fobs thus allowing them to enter and start key less ignitions I was looking for a low cost Faraday box. I tried several boxes either foil encased boxes and even a double steel document box with out luck. Having seen someone used a martini shaker I was looking for a small fully contained enclosure. That said I tried this placing my cell phone inside and calling the number. The call went to voicemail indicating the can blocked the signal to the phone. That said I now place my garage opener remotes inside the can every night and will do the same when I have a car using key less start.

Great for stoves
With a few minutes effort, this makes a great twig stove / cat can stove wind screen. Be prepared for the finish to burn off on first use.

Served their purpose - no issues
So glad we ordered these online rather than trying to buy directly at the store. In store lots of the cans are missing lids but by buying online the employee who assembled our order dealt with that for us! They have helped us save a ton of space.
