This is correct, and if the paint is water based, make sure the container you use is plastic, NOT metal.
The paint manufacturers use the theory of "planned obsolesce". Instead of using plastic cans, they insist on using metal, which will eventually rust, ruin the paint, and cause folks to buy new paint. This has been a pet peeve of mine for years.
