Wasted paint

Why on earth don't manufacturers put paint in plastic containers with a pouring lip.

I find by the time I have poured paint out of the tin I have already managed to get it all over the place including over myself

Re: Wasted paint

If you want coloured emulsion, buy Valspar from B&Q. It comes in plastic containers. More expensive than Dulux, but fantastic coverage.
