Q: How much solvent does this hold?
This brush washer holds 500 mL, or about a pint, which is enough to submerge and work brushes through several cleaning passes before it needs changing.
09A0265 - Paintbrush Wash Can
This stainless-steel brush washer holds 500ml (1 pint) of solvent and can be used for brushes up to 3" wide. The removable grate (3" in diameter and 2 3/8" deep) helps loosen paint, which then falls through its holes, leaving cleaner solvent above.
The gasket in the lid creates an airtight seal so there is no solvent odor or evaporation when the lid is clamped.

Yes, a gasket in the lid creates an airtight seal once it's clamped shut, so there's no ongoing solvent odor or evaporation between uses.
It's sized for brushes up to 3" wide, which covers most standard flat and trim brushes.
Paint that's worked loose from the bristles falls through the grate's holes, so the solvent sitting above it stays cleaner longer than in a plain open can.
The grate measures 3" in diameter and 2 3/8" deep, sized to sit inside the can and catch loosened paint as it settles to the bottom.
