Use Coco Dry to harden and solidify both water-based (acrylic and latex) and oil-based paints for disposal. Coco Dry’s honeycomb particulate structure can increase up to nine times its own mass during absorption, allowing paint to become encapsulated and turning it into a solid substance. Most paint hardeners rely on water as a catalyst to be effective, but Coco Dry relies on its high absorption characteristics in its natural form which makes it especially effective with oil-based paints. Due to Coco Dry’s non-leach characteristics, hardened paint will not "re-wet" even if it comes into contact with liquids in a landfill.
