Patent attributes
A container liner that can be flipped on top of another same liner to provide a liner-lid combination that forms an enclosure for storing a coating and/or coating utensil therewithin. The sidewalls of the liner provide an upper rim with upper mating face which engages against the corresponding upper mating face of another same liner to form a face seal along a majority of the upper rim. The opposingly interfaced liners form a section in which the ribs of the respective liners are in juxtaposition to each other in a laterally spaced apart relationship to define a through-opening that is configured to permit a portion of a coating utensil such as a paintbrush to extend therethrough. In addition, the liners may have a feature which allows the same liners to be nested while facing the same direction, allowing for ease of storage while the liners are not forming an enclosure.
