Types of Paint Can

Metal paint cans

Metal cans are considered the industry standard for any oil-based paint and industrial applications. Most of these cans are made up of tin-coated steel. The metals have durability and also prevent evaporation and contamination of the solvent inside. The demerits of this type of metal include the fact that it is heavier and can get rusted when not stored in the right manner.

Hybrid and specialty cans

The biomedical and hybrid concepts are combined together to leverage the advantages of each material. Specialized cans are manufactured for special cases; Aerosol spray paints would thereby need a pressurized container with specific valves and nozzles.

Features of Paint Can

Small round cans / metal paint can container with lids are widely used for dense liquids. This is a popular environmentally friendly packaging. 370ml, 500ml, 800ml, 1l, 4l and 5l are popular sizes. As for the large sizes, we have 10 liters, 15 liters, 18 liters, 20 liters and 23 liters. The metal cans / pails all have metal handles, which are easy to hold, bear heavy weight, and can hold more contents.

Exterior can be white/silver or custom cmyk printed. The interior can be coated, if the contents are water based liquid we will do 100% phenolic epoxy / varnish or laminate / plastic film. If it is a solvent-based liquid, no inner coating is required.

FAQ

Q: Can you use 10 year old unopened paint?

A: Oil-based paint is less susceptible to environmental conditions and generally has a longer life, up to 15 years before opening or up to 10 years afterward. Latex and acrylic paints are water-based, making them more delicate and susceptible to freezing temperatures. Before opening, they can last up to 10 years.

Q: How to keep metal paint cans from rusting?

A: When cans get wet, they rust and the labels fall off. Even plastic cans have metal lids that can rust.

Q: How to properly store paint cans?

A: Store paint in a cool, dark location, like a basement. If you do store it in the basement, make sure that it's on a shelf. Moisture from basement floors can rust your paint cans. If you don't have a basement, place cans in a cabinet or closet in your house.

Q: How long can I leave a paint can open?

A: A paint can should not be left open for more than a couple of hours, as the paint will begin to dry and thicken, making it difficult to apply.

Q: Should I store my paint cans upside down?

A: Storing cans upside down is another storage method. It allows the paint to create a vacuum seal that prevents air from penetrating.
