    I have plastic pouring aids. They fit well on some cans but not on others. Then, I have to clean them. This is pure genius! Thank you.

    I tried that trick on a new 5 litre can of bitumastic paint today and the can is spotless afterwards, some of these simple tips can change the way we do things.
