What happens here

Begin by carefully pouring the desired amount of paint from the large five-gallon bucket into the smaller cutting bucket. Once you've transferred enough paint, stop pouring and quickly snap the five-gallon bucket back upright. This quick motion helps to cleanly break the stream of paint, minimizing the initial drips.

Goal: Transfer paint and prevent initial drips

Tools and materials

  • Cutting bucket — Container receiving the paint
  • Five-gallon paint bucket — Container holding the bulk paint
  • Paint — The liquid being poured

I'm going to show you how to pour your paint, how your five gallon bucket, and then clean the rim really fast so it doesn't drip down the sides and make a mess.

Swipe it with my finger just like that. And now it won't drip down the sides. Then I just take my brush
