Broken Spray Can Top - Why is it...
...that it's always a new can of spray whatever that gets the top broken off right off the bat. It never happens to an empty can, even when it gets thrown into the metal trash can from 30 feet away.
How do you fix yours?

keep a few spray tips on hand
I have a drawer in an organizer on my workbench where I keep an assortment of spray tips from cans of "stuff" that I use frequently (and some not so frequently). If I'm using a couple or three cans of spray paint I'll pull the new clean tip from a new can and use a used tip so that I can keep clean tips on hand to replace the ones that clog. It's messy, but you could depress the broken nozzle in the photo with a punch or something while holding a patch over it to get Kroil on a patch.
