To get the best results, ensure surfaces to be painted are sound, clean and dry (new surfaces particularly must be fully dry).

Cleaning 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. Clean with Warm, Soapy Water- Use warm, soapy water in a sealed container, such as a bucket or empty tub, to clean your brushes and rollers. ​ 3. Rinse Thoroughly- Ensure all soap and paint residues are completely rinsed out into container.​ 4. Dry Naturally- Allow brushes and rollers to dry naturally and store them in a dry, dust-free place.​ 5. Allowing solids to settle- Allow the paint solids to settle at the bottom of the container. Once settled, pour the clear water into another container for reuse or disposal. ​ 6. Responsible Disposal- Let the remaining paint solids dry out completely and dispose of them as solid waste.​ Do not flush paint down the drain, including when cleaning painting tools​

Storing & Responsible Disposal- Do not use or store paint in extreme temperatures and protect from damp & frost. Reuse, Recycle, or Donate- 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 wastewater 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. Dispose of Unusable Brushes and Sleeves- If brushes or sleeves cannot be cleaned or reused, dispose of them in general waste to avoid recycling issues. Paint Wash Water- Collect wash water in a container; don’t pour it into drains or on the ground. Let solids settle, pour off clear water for reuse or disposal, and let solids dry before disposing as solid waste. Do not flush paint down drains, including when cleaning tools.
