i bought a few 500mL cans of black gloss at one of the car shows. They are all faulty, looks like the valve is duff on the lot. I would like to dispense the contents into a can for use in my gun, but attempts to depressurise one ended up in a lot of mess!
I first tried holding it upside down and pressing the valve. That seemed to run out of pressure, but when I did it again, I got covered in paint. All I have been able to do so far is press the valve in with a drill bit and try to catch the paint in a pot! My hands, the drill and the floor all ended up in a fetching shade of black!
Is there any foolproof and messproof way of retrieving the contents?
