I posted this elsewhere by mistake. Anyway, my nearly new spray can of black primer is clogged. Anything I can do? I always spray it upside down when I am finished. I don't know what happened.

Burik, what I would do - not necessarily the best option, would just pop that clogged nozzle and replace it with one from one of the spray cans under the sink or in the garage. Just match it up size-wise.

howdy Burik..

if the nozzle clogged. u might try the KEncelot's method..but beside that, try to soak the spray can in warm water for 10-15 minutes...
hope this helps...
good luck

Pop the top and drop that top in a small container of thinner.

I should get paid for this! :-)
