What happens if a container of paint is found to be older than the required inspection period?

When a container of paint is discovered to be older than the required inspection period, the appropriate action is to have it inspected. This process ensures that the paint's integrity, safety, and usability are evaluated before it is used. Inspections can reveal whether the paint has degraded over time, which could affect its performance and safety.

Using paint without inspection after it surpasses the inspection period may lead to issues such as poor application, reduced effectiveness, or even safety hazards. Therefore, an inspection is necessary to verify that the paint meets the necessary quality standards and is safe for use, ensuring compliance with regulations and best practices.
