You have three main options for this extra paint.  First, keep it for touching up when you have scratches and spots that don’t come clean.  Make sure that you seal the lid completely so that the paint doesn’t dry out.  Second, give the paint to a friend, a church or another not-for-profit. They can typically use whatever donations they receive.  And third, if neither of the first two solutions works for you, you can dispose of your leftover paint.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.care2.com/greenliving/disposing-of-old-paint.html">Of the most common types of paint, latex paint is the easiest to dispose of as it is not considered toxic.  You can let your leftover paint dry, remove it from the can and include it in your trash that is land filled.  </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/CE63535D-4923-44D3-874E-2E0E49745F77/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
