I once had a deduction from my deposit for a paintbrush and can of paint left on top of a kitchen cabinet; it had been left by their team when I moved in.

You left it there the entire time you lived there?

I have some paint in a cabinet which was leftover from when I moved in. I figured it might be useful if I need to touch up anything (although I haven't used it in 2 years yet, so it might not be good anymore). At first I thought that another person's comment was weird, before realizing I'm basically the same, except that I leave the paint in a cabinet.

Also, ADHD was a factor haha. Getting the dishes done and keeping the place tidy was enough of a struggle without extracurricular activities like the disposal of paint cans!

Yea, it wasn't terribly visually obtrusive, so I just sort of forgot about it.

Did you end up getting the full amount back?

Well that's fucking bullshit.

Where do you live that they can just do that without taking you to your equivalent of small claims? (VCAT in Victoria, Australia)

I was living in Scotland at the time.
