When the can is out of propellant but still has material inside, I lay the can on its side, punch a 1/4" hole at either end just under rim, using center punch or similar, and decant material into small jar; it can then be applied with brush. I don't like spraying oil all over the place to begin with.

Be aware that WD-40 can be bought in a one gallon container allowing small amounts to be dispensed in older style oil cans, or into small portion canisters for brushing on. One galls approximately $18 USD at Lowe's Buying in one gallon size drops price to $0.07 an ounce compared to almost $0.50 an once for the larger aerosol.
