    NOT The Wisest Move :lunapic 130165696578242 5: Drill A Hole in the Bottom of the Can or the lid let it Drain in to a Paint Tray :ideaIPB: But Rember the old Carnation Milk Trick You Have to Make to Holes to Allow it to Pour :yikes:

    Make Sure You Do it Early in the Morning that way You Will Have All Day to Paint after you have emptied the Can :runforhills: As You Can See Ive Just Legged it Before I Get a Smack Round the Chops :snork: Good Luck Kezzie

            Aww, I was going to suggest a sure fire way. Clear the room to be painted of furniture, set tin of paint over a camping gas stove, shut door & wait.

              Great idea Zigs! It'd be more interesting with two cans of different colours. :heehee:
