    Default Paint mix storage bottles


    I know someone had mentioned this quite awhile back, think might have been DrNip, but I remembered about urine sample bottles. Searched on line and picked these up. 3 oz plastic sample bottle with lid. Perfect size for storing paint. Picked these up 25 for around 8.00 through Walmart online with free shipping. Figure they will work great to store your special mixes in.

    Haha yeah I used to do that years ago when I worked at the prison. Done forgot all about that. Had tons of extra bottles we had to throw out due to not having temp strips on them.

    I have around 20 of those bottles I bought from the Dollar store. If I remember correctly they were $1 for three of them.

    Great idea... Just getting into powder coating. For small custom paint batches I use old Crappie Nibble jars. Repurposing at its finest...

    I think if I had to do over though might have purchased 4 oz bottles instead. These are like my ones from TJ’s Tackle.
