I wanted to use a partially consumed can of spray paint the other day, but the perennial problem prevented me from doing so — the nozzle was full of dried-up paint. I searched around the shop for another nozzle and ended up using the one off my can of WD-40. When I put the nozzle back on the can of WD-40, I gave it a squirt to clean it out, and realized that I can do the same thing with my spraycan nozzles. Now when I’m done using a can of spray paint, I put its nozzle on the WD-40 can for a cleansing blast.
