Listen—we designed the KD‑166 1 Qt Feed Scoop for grain, not gloss. But sometimes genius shows up with a brush in one hand and a barn tool in the other.

Turns out, this tough little scoop is the perfect painter’s sidekick. It’s small, strong, easy to grip, and—bonus—it holds just the right amount of paint for trim work, touch-ups, or projects that don’t need a whole can on standby.

🎨 Why It Works for Painting

  • Ergonomic Handle: Designed to carry feed, which also makes it perfect for gripping while painting.
  • Perfect Capacity: 1 quart is just enough paint without being bulky.
  • Brush Fits Smoothly: The scoop's shape allows easy brush dipping—no scraping your knuckles on a can rim.
  • Cheap & Tough: Durable enough to last project after project. Buy a few, one per color.

💡 Ranch-Tested, DIY-Approved

This scoop doesn’t care whether it’s holding oats, paint, or concrete sealant. It just gets the job done. So if you’re the type who tackles home projects in boots and jeans, the KD‑166 is your new favorite tool.

Pro tip: It’s also great for mixing small batches of stain, holding tools on ladders, or letting kids paint without risking the whole gallon.
