  UNWANTED PAINT DISPOSAL:  Paint contains chemicals such as solvents and metals that can damage the environment, especially water supplies.  Unwanted paint may be disposed of in the following ways:

  1. Do not pour paint down the drain or throw it in the trash in its liquid form.
  2. Small amounts of both water and oil-based paint can be dried in their containers or spread on cardboard lined with newspapers and left to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from ignition sources.  When dried, you may throw it away with your garbage.
  3. If paint has been separated and cannot be mixed, place the liquids into a small amount of absorbent material, such as a clay-based kitty-litter or shredded newspaper in a cardboard box.  Let the material air dry in a well-ventilated area away from ignition sources, preferably outside.  The sludge left at the bottom of the can may be left to air dry in the can in a well-ventilated area.  Once both the sludge and absorbent material are dried, they can be sent to the landfill with your garbage.
