Straining paint

[Jezurus]

What does everyone use to strain paint? The mesh they sell at Lowes is to big, I opened a new bottle of Wicked cobalt blue and reduced a few drops in a cup and there were tiny grains of paint that would not dissolve and my strainer was useless so I dumped it, bad bottle of paint?
After correctly reducing my Wickeds my Krome worked sooooo good, its just a matter of learning the correct methods!

Get a pair or women's nylon stockings. Cut in to squares. Remove cap from bottle. Place mesh over bottle opening. Put cap back on. You can store the bottles up side down so the mesh stays wet and doesn't clog.

Just don't put the nylons back in her drawer with a big hole in them !! And no, fishnets won't work [emoji12]

@Nada has done that to me. But, if it's silly but it works, it's not silly.

I recommend bringing a female companion with, if you are going to buy them. I went to buy some and had to ask the sales lady where they were. She pointed them out, and then proceeded to ask what size and color I wanted... I tried to explain I wanted whatever was cheap, since they were only being used to strain paint, to which she replied by pointing out the sizes that would likely fit me best, and the various color and style options! I highly recommend you avoid all this, and just bring a friend who can show you where they're at.
