Add kitty litter and stir !!

Kitty Litter? Who knew! Great suggestion and you wouldn't believe the things I see that sellers leave behind when I am working with investors to flip homes. I wish paint was the only thing!

Rob, that and baking soda can do wonders for all kinds of things for "clean up"! 

Rob D. Shepherd Yep, I used this on my own paint cans. Beats pouring it all over a tarp, letting that dry, and then throwing that away. Yes, sadly I have done that too.

So true Rob. The colors are the last thing they want to keep and to have all those cans to dispose of is such a pain.

Helpful post and a subject that does come up. Thank you for sharing Rob D. Shepherd 

If the paint is still fresh I think it's a great idea to leave it for the new owners. All those rusty cans of outdated paint though need to go!  If you are so concerned with the new owners needing to know the color, write it down for them!

Had no idea about the kitty litter....great tip!

Hi Rob D. Shepherd ,  anks for the tip on Kitty Litter.  I will pass it along to future buyers.

What a great idea!  I am going to have to remember that for any of my buyers who have paint left in their new homes.  Thanks!

Rob, it is amazing to find most of the paint left has been there for years, and hard!   Great tip.
