Proper Disposal Of Paint Rinse
HO hired their own painters. Right inside the crawl space was a flood of used paint rinse. I was so
that I almost called the city to have those idiots fined.

Pour it down the sewer, it helps kill toxic bacteria.

That was the instructions from the city official who came by when they were putting it in the gutter.

Re: Proper Disposal Of Paint Rinse
I jad a exterior job a few years back and when I was done for the day I asked the homeowner if I could come in to wash out my roller and brush and he told me "Oh no we can have you putting paint down our sink, just use the hose in the backyard,"
I know one thing their water bill had to be high after I washed down all the paint in the grass, I ran the water intil all the paint was gone.

In a city which will fine you for washing tools outside when your painting
That is why you should take them home to clean

Re: Proper Disposal Of Paint Rinse
I think I heard a pro say "just throw your tools away and charge the client for it"
