How it works

  1. Open the slit along the side of the grip.

  2. Press it onto the wire handle of your paint can. No tools required.

  3. Carry the can by a wider, smoother surface instead of the bare wire.

Why it exists

From Thin Wire to Comfortable Carry.

The Buddy System Safety Grip on its own: a straight black tube lying on a dark, textured surface in sunlight.

A full paint can hangs from a thin wire handle that digs into your hand. The Safety Grip gives you a wider, smoother surface to hold and it fits any standard paint can wire handle.
