Life hack Dave, when you’re done using the spray can turn it upside down and give it a couple of sprays and it will clear out the tip so it’s ready to use the next time 👍🏻👍🏻

Dave as a fellow hoarder or "collector" of many random flavors of rattle can paints/primers/epoxy paints/adhesives/etc. I can't say enough about how well the cheap Amazon/ebay drill powered spray can spinners or especially the shakers work for using/salvaging old or partially used cans... Especially for high build primers and epoxy style rattle can mixtures! The can spinners are always built with cheap hardware and require a grade 8 bolt and some thicker fender washers, but are super cheap, small, and portable. The drill powered can shakers definitely are superior, especially if you get the bench mount style instead of the grip handle type. Its amazing how quick and easy it mixes a perfect non clogging, faster drying can up, even brand new cans of cheap flat paint now spray better than I ever knew they could... I regret not buying one sooner, because I've definitely thrown away enough "bad" cans of paint after clogging the internal valve to buy several shakers and spinners🤦‍♂️ Plus pulling a drill trigger is much more pleasant than shaking cans until your hands go numb 🤣👍 Thanks for the content Dave!

[@thedirtheadshed]

[@colubrinedeucecreative]

I definitely recognized several places in this video. I used to work right down the street from Diesel Power Products at FedEx Freight. I live in Post Falls, so I really know Trent and the gas station at Star Rd. If I recognized your trip into N. Idaho correctly, you went north of Spirit Lake and up Mt Hoodoo. You can't quite see Canada or Washington from there, but Washington is just the other side of that Ridgeline across the foggy valley. There's actually a road that takes you from Blanchard over to Elk and Riverside area. Great video Dave!

[@thedirtheadshed]

All correct

[@daveauman2339]

Merry Christmas and keep up the great content. I've been using Napa commercial coating for decades. Tough paint that can be brushed on or reduced and sprayed. Rocks will still bang it up, but I still like it. Last vehicle that I painted was gallons on my M817 dump truck, that I used for my business. 😊

[@thedirtheadshed]

I’ll have to give it a look

[@daveauman2339]

@thedirtheadshed , if you reduce it and add hardener, it actually sprays well and makes a durable finish. Don't limit yourself to the few colors available. When I painted my dump truck, I mixed 4 parts John Deere Green with 1 part black and got a beautiful dark forest green. I found the color I liked by counting drops from a paint stick and mixing them together. Happy New Year!
