The Anatomy of a can....

Hey! Ever wondered what is in side a spray can? I have, and after reading bits from the MONSTER site - in particular the info for the premier paint range - it got me thinking......
So this is what happened......
1. I got an old can - this was used and there was no more paint to be sprayed from it.
2. After making a hole in it (from a distance) I opened it up by using a junior hacksaw..
WARNING - DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME KIDS AS THE CANS ARE PRESSURISED AND WE DON'T WANT ANY ACCIDENTS NOW, DO WE?......

 

3. Then i emptied out the remaining contents.  There was actually still quite a bit of paint in the can - probably about 40-50mls left. And its really nice and bright! Also, you can see the steel balls that are inside a can. When you shake a can and hear it rattle, this is what the rattle is - its actually a really cool way of mixing the paint - but a bit noisy!

4. Then, once the paint is out, you can clearly see the tube that extends to the bottom of the can and where it joins the valve at the top of the can!

 

And thats it! Remember kids - use spray paint for legal pieces coz the illegal stuff just aint worth it! (...ahem...ahem..)
