The trick to using POR 15 or Bill Hirsch's Miracle Paint is to punch 2 holes
in the top and pour from the hole. Don't punch the hole too close to the
edge of the lip as you are going to use tape, I use duct tape, to cover the
holes after cleaning the top of paint. I've used the same quart can for a
year doing it like that. Pour only as much as you will need as you can't
pour it back in.
Buy plenty of foam brushes too.
And USE gloves!!!!!!!
