To keep touch-up paint, store in a nail polish bottle and don't forget to label it.
(This sounds like a great idea....but I haven't figured out how you get all the nail polish out first.)
To make a non-skid surface on concrete, mix a small amount of store bought sand in paint and paint the concrete.
To remove oil based paint from skin, use vegetable oil.
If you find your paint brushes are getting stiff after multiple uses, place the bristles in straight fabric softener for a few hours. Rinse out and soak again. Rinse thoroughly after the final soaking.

"To keep touch-up paint, store in a nail polish bottle and don't forget to label it." Sounds like a winner to me, except like u say, how do you empty the bottle???

Touchup paint! (if needed) You can purchase a smaller sized can from the hardware store to place the remaining paint into. It gives you a nice clean looking can to store but first make a small paint spot on the lid so you know what color it is. And the important part,,,,,, if you’re using latex type paint, place a small amount of “water” on top of the paint surface in the can. Don’t mix it!!!!! This water will prevent “air” getting to the paint and causing the paint “skin” from occurring. Don’t shake the can or mix the water into the paint until you’re ready to touch up years later.
