Abstract
An adjustable actuator for a spray can. The actuator includes a housing for attachment to an aerosol can covering a stem valve. A finger operating button structure is engaged with the housing for engaging the stem valve. A rotary two-way diverter valve is supported within the housing and rotatably engaged with the finger operating button structure. In a spray position/straw down, the two-way diverter valve directs spray through a first direct spray nozzle. In a second straw position/straw up, the diverter valve is rotated to engage a straw spray passage of the diverter valve in fluid communication with a spray tip and engaged straw. A sliding tab member engaged between and on the housing and button structure is used to adjust the desired amount of fluid flow.
