Specifications
This is a 1 quart unlined metal paint can ideal for solvents and oil-based products such as paints, coatings, adhesives, and more. Metal paint cans are made with 20% post-consumer recycled content and are 100% recyclable. The Cary Company offers accessories for this paint can such as paint can lids, openers, closers, and can clips. This metal container has a layer of tinplate mill oil, often referred to as TMO or protective oil, applied to tinplate coils, serving several tightly controlled functions across corrosion protection, processability and surface quality. Freshly produced tinplate is highly susceptible to oxidation, especially at cut edges and micro-porosities in the tin coating. Mill oil forms a thin hydrophobic barrier that limits oxygen and moisture contact, reduces the risk of “white rust” (tin oxide formation) and preserves brightness during storage and transit.

Key benefits:
  • Unlined
  • Metal paint cans contain 20% post-consumer recycled content and are 100% recyclable
  • Proudly Made in the USA

Q & A
Customer Questions
What type of metal is this paint can made of?
Most metal paint cans are made of tin-plated steel. The steel component gives the container strength. The tin plating adds corrosion resistance to protect the can from the chemical composition or corrosive effects of the can’s contents.
Some of these paint cans are called unlined or lined. What are these linings? And what does unlined mean?
Lined cans are lined with either epoxy phenolic or gold phenolic lining. Epoxy phenolic lining is a gray-colored lining that is used for alkaline products, fatty acids, detergents, emulsions, general organic chemicals, surfactants and water-based resins. The epoxy-phenolic linings have been designed to provide outstanding chemical resistance in a pH range of 7.0 – 9.0. Gold phenolic lining is a gold-colored lining that is a good option for solvents and oil-based products. Gold phenolic linings are also FDA approved, which makes them safe for food products.

Unlined paint cans are sprayed or rinsed with a rust inhibitor that helps slow rusting prior to filling the cans with a specific product. Unlined paint cans are good for holding oil-based or solvent coatings.
Can this metal paint can be recycled?
Yes, metal paint cans can be recycled. As steel retains its properties through the recycling process, it can be recycled repeatedly. Old metal paint cans are used to make tools, equipment and building materials. In fact, many of our metal paint cans are made of at least 25% post-consumer content.
Can I put food products in metal paint cans?
Food products should only be stored in metal paint cans that are specifically rated for food use. Some options, such as gold phenolic‑lined cans, can provide a protective barrier, but not all paint cans are safe for food contact. Always review the manufacturer’s specifications or labeling to confirm the can is certified for food use before proceeding.
Do you sell lids and bails for this paint can?
Yes, you can purchase both lids and bails (metal handles) for various paint cans. Cans sold without lids have compatible lids listed in the Related Products section of that paint can’s product page. The Cary Company also has paint can clips, overseal rings, opening and closing tools, paint can mixers and even shipping supplies specifically for paint cans.
