I opened an old paint can to do some molding touch-up. Rust flakes dropped into the can. I don't need much paint, so I'd rather not buy a new can. It's Sherwin Williams water-based acrylic enamel.
Should I just pour the contents through a cotton or nylon screen into a new can? Or does the paint need to be thinned first (so that it goes through the screen easier)? Thanks.
