5.0 out of 5 stars Great little touch-up tool, October 31, 2006

I used this for the first time and discovered how much easier it was to use than the traditional manner of "brush and paint can" for small touch-ups. It worked great on small areas, but would not be suitable for "long-over due" touch-ups where walls are badly scuffed. For the little mark here and there, it worked wonders! Watch out for the occassional excess paint coming out the dispenser hole. Also, over carpet (or other stainable items) it would be good to have a drip catcher underneath. After all, you are PAINTING and paint will drip no matter what you use! I plan to purchase one for every color of paint in my house! Used properly and with care, this should be the means to end scuffs on your walls!

5.0 out of 5 stars Paint buddy is great, July 23, 2006

The paint buddy is truely a great tool to have around. I have a two year old and he bumps the walls and his toys leave marks on walls and the paint buddy is great for that task. It is also great when suitcases brush against the wall from visitors. covers the smudges right up. I have had mine over a year and the paint lasts, it doesn't dry up. You will see separation in the paint but you shake it well before you use it and it works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Touch Ups!, July 13, 2009

I've been using the Rubbermaid Paint Buddys since 2003. I keep one for every paint color in my home. I ask for an extra label when I have my paints mixed and put that label on my Paint Buddy in the event I need to order more paint. Touch ups are a breeze! I haven't had my paint dry up in one yet! Just be careful when priming the roller that you do not squeeze too tightly or it will ooze more paint than you wanted!!!
