Vinyl Lure Paint Bottle Mishap

Recommended Posts

Long story short, had a 4-ounce bottle of white primer about a year old. Always had trouble with the lid. Two nights ago the lid was stuck and the paint looked thick. Tried to open and as I was twisting the lid with my right hand, holding jar in left, the jar collapsed and broke like an egg in my left hand leaving me with a gooey mess and a couple of puncture wounds that had me bleeding like a stuck pig. Grease those threads or find a better bottle. I was lucky, a little pressure and a bandaid and I'm fine. Could have been much worse.

Next time tip the jar upside down. Drizzle some thinner around the lid. Let it sit a couple of minutes and it will spin right off. :D
