Does anyone know where I can get a pour spout for the standard 1 gallon metal can used for thinner, dentatured alcohol, etc?
I've tried the pour the can from the side method...and that still didn't work so great when the can was full. You would think the manufacturers of these things would be smart enough to make a no drip lip, but it's as if they want us waste the product so we buy more!

Virtually any paint store. Probably even the big box stores, although I haven't looked.

I thought this one was long dead. I took one of the "new" laundry soap bottles that my wife emptied. Has a handy push button valve. Holds paint thinner just fine - dispense as needed, sits nicely on a shelf, bright color (All), has not leaked to date, holds more than a gallon. Totally nice.
I've not tried it with lacquer thinner yet, waiting for her to empty another.

That's the trick. Always pour "from the top" because you don't want it to go cluck-cluck. Leave enough space for the air to go into the container smoothly.
Unless it is a beer. :-)

It's the same for pouring a beer out of a container. How you pour it into yourself is another matter ...
Buy that man one ... LOL!

Good job on stealing my idea and patenting it. I posted that on this news group 5-6 years ago or longer.
Strange thing about that imgur link. I *think* it flashed an image of can with a copper spout for a split second, then switched to an image of a band saw. Now all I ever get is the band saw image.
Could imgur be recycling links?

I still don't understand why that spout image flashed before my eyes (once) before switching to the band saw image.
I now see that the same link was posted by tiredofspam back in 2012, but I never clicked on the link in that post.
It's almost like there was a remnant at imgur that flashed quickly just before woodchucker's band saw showed up.
Very strange!
