   My wife and I bought our boat for many reasons. One big one was the beautiful teak rails and
        and trim that highlighted it. Ten (10) years later the task of varnishing these rails and trim has
        become rather arduous. I do it myself because it is somewhat soothing.

        The sun and salt air take a heavy toil on the shiny surfaces. Even varnishes with high UV
         protection require many coats a season. Opening and closing the can many times tended to
         damage the seal and flood the top with varnish. This is even when using care. But sometimes
         6-8 coats are needed.

         Then I was introduced to Aqua-Tainer Lids. I can open the can, store the lid out of the way
         and snap on a lid and things are a whole lot easier and cleaner. I've enclosed a photo of my
         "set-up". I'll never do it any other way. I've got a red, yellow and "clear" lid for the different
         finishes I apply. For easy movement on the deck area I always use quart cans.
                                                                                                                 

 An added feature I enjoy - beyond the easy opening and closing and keeping the can clean - is the ability to clean my brushes against the lip between the opening and pour spout. I was going through brushes like crazy. But, using that lip I can squeeze the varnish from the brush and store it in a coffee can rig and get two (2) coats out of a brush. The section I send the photo of took eight (8) coats. At almost a buck brush that's a savings that your lids account for.
Thank you for a good product

   Maurice in Dallas, Texas regarding our Flip Top Lids, " The quart -size lids" are perfect and I 
         look forward to using them for my small projects. I used one of your gallon Flip Tops for 
         several years until it finally wore out. Thanks to your suggestion I replaced it with one

       purchased at a local home center store."

    Mary in Mukilteo, Washington, "I just wanted to take a moment and let you know how much I 
        appreciated, enjoyed and was darn glad to find your product. I purchased three of the Super
        Lids for my deck painting job. What a find! 

        Painting anything outside in the great Pacific Northwest requires a great deal of patience 
        because of our wet climate. Waiting for the right day is just a part of getting a good job done.
        I was able to keep my paint in good condition until we dried out a few days so I could get that
        second coat of primer on and then the final coats of paint. This year it took a month from
        the first primer coat to the last touch up job. Your lids kept all the paint in fine condition.

        In addition, this has been the cleanest job I have ever done, mostly because I was able to
        pour the paint just into the pan and not all over the place. I am so pleased that your device 
        was there to help! And they clean up great, so I can use them again and again. 

        Thanks again, I actually found enjoyment in the work this time because I was able to keep 
         the paint in the pan!"

    Pastor Ray from Hilliard, Ohio. "I think your products are great. They're certainly a 
         tremendous help and time and money saver. It puzzles me that more stores who cater 
         to the 'do-it-yourselfer' do not carry a full line of them. I wish I had known about them a 
         long time ago. I would have saved myself a lot of trouble, plus paint."

   

    Barbara in Mountain Home, Arkansas. "I don't often sit down and write someone about a 
        product, but after using the Super Lid I just want to thank you for a better mouse trap. My 
        father always said for any job you need the right tool. Well, I found that tool in your  
        product. It sure makes painting clean-up a breeze and I don't look like the town painter. 
        This is a Must product for the do-it-yourself painter. I just happened to see it hanging 
        on a card display at one of the larger hardware chains. Just wanted to let you know it 
        is great and thanks to the guy who designed it. Well, I have more painting to do today - 
        again, thanks from a really satisfied customer!!!!"
