One thing I did notice is that the cans are much better kept upright. If you hold them at too much of an angle (like you would get away with on a normal rattle can) it spits quite a bit when it's getting low.

Have fun!
Cheers Paul I've ordered 3 cans plus I bought a spray can 'gun'....which is supposed to make application smoother? Now all I need is a dry day...
