ABSTRACT:
A paint can construction is set forth wherein a paint can is provided with a conventional circumferential trough proximate the upper end of the paint can bounded by an exterior and interior flange. A series of equally spaced through-extending apertures are positioned through a floor of the trough to enable drainage and directing of paint contained within the trough interiorly of the can upon securement of the associated lid onto the can. An alternative form of the invention utilizes a series of biased downwardly extending plungers equal to the number of the apertures contained within the trough of the container whereupon the plungers are simultaneously actuated by a continuous ring overlying each of the plungers and secured to the plungers whereupon downwardly striking the plungers unclogs any of the apertures having contained paint therewithin to free the apertures for subsequent drainage.
