just want to say that I like the humbrol paints. But the bottles that they come in are terrible! They do not shut and the paint dries out on them. Any suggestions??

If you are referring to the little tins, I simple use a small screw driver to gently remove the tops, and use a thinner dampen paper towel to clean the sealing lip and lid before replacing the top. I use a small ship modelers hammer to tap it on tightly.
