Is old paint bad paint? #renew #paint
What happens here
Begin by inspecting the paint in the can. Observe the noticeable separation of components: a darker, clearer liquid layer on top and a thicker, lighter pigment layer settled at the bottom. This visual confirmation indicates the paint needs thorough mixing. Carefully insert a paint mixer, attached to a power drill, into the can, ensuring the mixer reaches the very bottom where the pigment is most concentrated.
Goal: Confirm paint separation and position mixer
