I never had much contact with DYI until moving out of my parents’ house. Then a new world opened for me, a world populated by screws, hammers, paint rollers and IKEA.
I was pretty decent at everything, I didn’t break the furniture and the paint looked almost normal, but the clean-up part was a bitch. Vacuuming and gathering loose screws was one thing; cleaning the paint tray was another. So I took the easy way out and just threw it in the trash.

But see, I didn’t know the Shur-Line Teflon Metal Paint Tray existed, or I would’ve been first in line to buy it. I am still unsure how you are supposed to clean a regular tray, but this one makes it very easy for anyone: just peel it off. Because it’s teflon, the paint won’t stick too hard, so it’s much easier to remove.

The only issue is that if the layer is too thin, the process will be more difficult, so it’s really only recommended if you use it a lot (leave more paint to dry inside it/use it several times before cleaning).

How much under $29.99?
A lot: $8.99 on Amazon.com.
