never needed Wipes

Greg,

First thing I do w/jars of either kind of paints oil base or acrylic,  is drop 2 B-B's in the jar for better shake up.

Close lid only after wiping jar rim off and add 2 drops of water or paint thinner depending on paint being using.

If needed,  will use paint thinner w/old white handkerchief from my paint cleaner and syringe box.

Make your own wipes

Back to paper towels

Yep, back to using paper towels with alcohol.  I really miss the convenience of pulling a wipe out and using it - no muss, no fuss.

for the tp and isopropanol shortage?  I wondered if they saw that time in the cellar or garage was going to increase and stocked up.....

The cut up paper towel idea works great.  I’ve used it for painting with acrylics by putting a piece on a plastic lid, wet it with a little distilled water and then dripped the paint onto it.  It keeps the paint useable longer.  The small squares can be used to clean up after.  Any solvent that is applicable works.
