Thread: Hmm am I a closet hoarder?

Well Iv`e been doing a bit of work around the old house. Needed a bit of paint to finish of a inside wall that has been re plastered. Yep there will be some in our old out side laundry. There is about fifteen to twenty cans of various sizes and colours of aging paint going waaaay back. Found one can with a Mc Ewans paint code on the lid For all you non Victorians Mc Ewans has not been around for nearly twenty years. Rest of the can had at one stage a paper wrap around it. It was mostly gone and unreadable. Might need to tidy up my paint collection a bit and bring it up to date On the up side I found the original tin that I painted the wall with, only that was ten years ago Funny enough the paint was a bit past it`s prime.
Cheers Hall

Hall, only 15 or 20 cans....you can do better than that, shame you aren't hoarding something more fun.

At my place I gave about 50 cans, some 15lt's to the guys who do the murals on the motor way sound barrier wall. Hardened chemically another 12 or so and still have another 20lt of enamel I need to ditch somehow.

You probably guessed it is my profession, but hoarding paint tins is a sad reality of the job required.
