Words of Wisdom That Pay Off:
If you keep the leftover paint from every room you paint, in nineteen years you will need to repaint the laundry room and you wont have to do any cutting in. I just rolled that old paint on top of the paint job from nineteen years ago. Aside from wiping off the baseboard from where I bumped it, I didn't have to touch any trim.
It's a dream come true.
Jay said that if you store the old cans upsidedown, they're less likely to form a skin, and any skin that does form will be on the bottom. Haven't tested it yet....

~~Silk- I just peeled the skin off like it was a yogurt top. It seemed quite separate from the paint. It really is amazing - next, I'll be using the wallpaper I stored and fitting into the jeans I saved - well, wait.

I think you need to come and help me paint my house. I'll cut.

Friend #3 - are you just asking me to comment again on the way I lay in bed at your house observing the crappy cutting job you did on your ceiling? Really?
