 storing paint
I know I can't be the only person who is having this issue. I've got a whole mess of Monster Kolor that I keep in a lovely plastic toolbox. I haven't had the time (and the humidity has been working against me) to get into the paints, so they are all still sealed.
That being said, my home office (where I store everything) smells like the spray bay at Earl Schieb.
How do you folks store your paints as to not be in a constant paint-huffing high? I know this can't be good for me, but I just don't know what to do.

 Re: storing paint
Wow. That does sound bad. Do you have a garage or some other, more airy, place you can store them?

 Re: storing paint
I just keep my MK in sealed ziplock baggies when I'm not using it... it works great, but it DOES stink to high hell in the bottles.

 Re: storing paint
Couldn't you just transfer the paint to standard glass jars? I had no idea MK was so stinky... and "the powers that be" thought vcolor was bad!

 Re: storing paint
I can't imagine what it's like at Dead Presidents Designs. My mailman asked me just what I needed such strong paints for when he delivered the unmarked box. The one upside is that my cats will now no longer screw with my painting gear when I have it laying out in my prep area.
I'm picking up a metal box with a good seal tomorrow to put the MK bottles in. We'll see if that does anything.
