Great solution for dealing with old paint
Works quickly to setup/harden liquid paint. Works faster than kitty litter and other fibrous products I've used. It also adds less volume to the paint can. Available in larger containers if you need to dispose of lots of cans.

Lots of stored partial cans of paint leaving for dump thanks to the hardener. Its required that the paint be hard for them to accept it for the landfill. Amazed me that the paint stores that sold you the paint wont help safely dispose of left overs.

It says for water and oil based paints and stains. I split up a 5 gallon container of old oil based deck finish and so far I’ve used 15- 3.5 oz bags and it’s stil not even close to hard. It thickened and became gritty but that’s it. Worked ok for basic paint.

Satisfied with Krud Kutter
I was a bit disappointed to learn that 2/3 means 2/3 of a gallon rather then 2 or 3 gallons but the product did work very well.

Thank you for reaching out, Arlene! To ensure the best results with Rust-Oleum Krud Kutter Waste Paint Hardener, it is essential that you are mixing the correct ratio. A 3.5 oz. bag will treat ⅔ gallon of paint. If the paint is thicker, one cup of water may be added to help with ease of use.

Great for water-based low VOC paint
Great product if used right. Best for water base paint that is less than a 1/3 of gallon. The less vocs the better. Not as good on oil based paints, but will still work by using more and waiting for it to dry.

      Thank you for your feedback! Using more will hasten the process but is not required. The 3.5 oz pouch of Rust-Oleum Krud Kutter Waste Paint Hardener will treat ⅔ gallon of paint.

      Used one packet each for several gallon cans about 60% full. Stirred them each until thick enough to make it difficult to stir anymore. Set out to harden for 36 to 48 hours. Yes it does work!The second batch I did I forgot to stir it much and so the paint thicken some but not enough for the trash. Buying some more Krud to add to it. Hope it works. Yes I like much.

      This product works great on latex paints. As we had a lot of ruined left over paint to dispose of, we did the research and KRUD KUTTER had the best rating. Did not disappoint!
