Do you have any silly or not-silly questions around reusing paint? We've been making paint reuse happen for over 30 years, 5.4 million litres of it. So If you've got questions, we'd love to hear them! #sillyquestions #reuse #paint

Putting liquid paint in your black bag has serious harmful effects on the natural environment, so don't ever put liquid paint in with your general waste. Waste paint contains harmful forever chemicals that can leach into waterways underground. #AskAnArchaeologist #leftoverpaint

For all those in the UK that fancy painting in town and cities clearing graffiti , tidying up community places etc, try this, saves paint going to landfill or incinerator, it's collected up and you can go along and get it for free for individuals and small groups
