Why open the can? All the paint is obviously on the outside. Use as is...
or did you need the can as a place to store your recent purchase of bulk
pencil shavings?

give away search records to the gov.?)

This site is very clever, and easy. Everything is 3 steps. I shall try
this tonight. I have an Amstrong screwdriver, which is from a government
auction. It must be high quality because it says Armstrong. The tip is
worn off and handle cracked, but it is still very good quality. I will
paint it and sell it. I will call Armstong tomorrow about this
screwdriver.
