1、What you need to know about paint bucket?

A paint bucket is a container for paint, usually cylindrical, with a layer of rust-proof paint on the surface. paint buckets are usually made of white iron and are usually large enough to store a lot of paint at once and not easily damaged. When painting, many people put the roller directly into the paint bucket and dip it into the paint, which is very convenient.

2、What you need to know about paint plates?

The paint plate is made of plastic and is rectangular in shape. There are two main types of tray used for paint on the market today, the solid tray used for paint and the mesh tray used for paint. It helps paint rollers to dip the paint evenly and removes the excess paint from the paint rollers. You can remove excess paint by squeezing the paint on a solid tray used for paint, or by rolling the tray used for paint in a grid design. These are two very obvious advantages of tray used for paint and with these two advantages tray used for paint has become very popular in the market.

3、paint bucket VS paint plate

In terms of material, both paint buckets and trays used for paint s are very strong and resistant to damage, but the former is heavier, especially when filled with paint. The tray used for paint is made of plastic and is very light, so people can move it around easily. In terms of function, although both can hold paint for paint rollers to dip into, the amount of paint that can be dipped into them varies and gives different results. If you dip paint rollers directly into a paint bucket, you can easily over-dip the paint, resulting in not only a waste of paint but also a less even and smooth finish. If you use a tray used for paint  to dip the paint, after dipping one half of the paint rollers into the paint, you simply let it roll over the smooth surface of the tray used for paint and the paint rollers will dip evenly into the paint!

The tray used for paint removes the excess paint from the paint rollers in a way that the paint bucket does not. Removing excess paint makes it easier to clean paint rollers. If you need a tool to store paint, you should still choose a paint bucket, but if you need a painting aid, more and more people will choose a tray used for paint , which is the trend. The tray used for paint is also very easy to clean and can be reused many times.
