You can buy empty new paint cans from McMaster-Carr as well, half-pint on up in size. I've used those for splitting up adhesives like 3M 1300L into smaller quantities to keep it from drying out.

I test fit the trunk floor pan and marked it from under the car for drilling the holes that will be plug welded to the frame rails. The green tape is to keep the weld surfaces clean. I peeled the tape and sprayed those areas with a weld through zinc primer. Good thing you didn't use blue tape.. Liberalism is a mental disorder that leads to social disease.

MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone) is your friend- it will take POR off if you get to it before it's completely dry. Hardware or lumber yard should have it in the paint department; I always keep a quart or two around. POR's thinner/cleaner will burn your skin- more for getting it off objects, not skin.
