Abstract
Flexible, extruded strips and molded, curved pieces are used as pressed-in fillers for the edge grooves in an opened can of paint. This acts as a cover for the groove where the lid seals. The result is that an opened can of paint may be poured-from without the lid seal area becoming fouled by paint. A pour lip is also provided to preclude paint running down the can after the pouring.
