ABSTRACT:
A protective device for temporarily shielding the upper surfaces of an open liquid container, such as a paint can or the like, to prevent the contained liquid from accumulating upon the upper surfaces thereof. The device involves an endless loop made of a deformable metal foil that is passed partially over the top of the container so that the top section of the loop extends upwardly above the upper rim of the container. The top section is folded inwardly over the rim of the container and is pressed tightly thereagainst to form a tight seal. The outer portion of the folded section is then passed downwardly into the container opening to form a circular wall depending from the lip of the rim which serves to prevent contained liquid from spilling over the lip of the rim.
