Yes, paint stored in original metal cans can be a fire hazard, especially if the paint is oil-based or contains flammable solvents. These materials can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may ignite if exposed to heat or open flames. To minimize risks, it’s important to store paint in a cool, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition. Always check local regulations for proper storage and disposal guidelines.
