Shur-Line 06100 Gallon Can Paint Pourer

Works great don’t loose as much product pouring in mixing cup

Easy to install and pour. Keeps can clean so the load will fit tight again if need be. Rinse under running water to clean and you will have it for many years.

I have a spot that I had for years and decided to order another of the same type. The orange and blue big box stores no longer sell this type in the store so I ordered this Shur-Line 06100 from Amazon. To my surprise after placing the old and new spouts side by side I discovered they are the exact model and brand. Every curve, line, etc. matches. See photos 1 and 2.This review is for my use with latex and acrylic paint only. I avoid using oil paint when possible.Both the old and new have Made In the USA stamped in the exact same location. See photos 3 and 4.For whatever reason the new pour spout is not as snug as the old one even with old paint on the old one taken into account. One star is deducted for this. Before pouring each time make sure the spout is firmly seated on the can and it will work just fine. Use two hands on the can and don’t use the handle to pour.Some reviewers commented the spout will get in the way when carrying the can. I agree. Use two hands to carry the can, not by the handle. The alternative is to get a shorter spout. You won’t find a shorter spout the goes around the entire can rim at the big box store (at least in my area) so try Amazon.This spout cleans fairly easy. I use a plastic putty knife to scrape off any dried paint. If you really want to get the spout cleaner follow up with plain water and a green scrubbing pad. I’ve used my old Shur-Line for many, many DIY paint jobs and did not have a problem with dried paint flaking off after giving the spout a decent cleaning even if some paint remained on the spout. Just make sure all loose paint has been removed before starting a new job.Overall when all is said and done this spout works well for me, keeps paint out of the can grooves and makes pouring paint simple.

As described and delivered promptly.

Great product, easy to clean, but some cans have a wider opening, i.e. plastic cans, so need to hold it when pouring, but is non messy and easy to clean, unlike a rubber cap with a spout that goes on metal cans. Would buy again if needed. Must have to keep a paint can clean to reseal.

I purchased 2 paint can pourers. I used one of them 3 times. Nice little pourer. Unfortunately, the 3rd time i used it, the little spout CRACKED. waste of my money. Unk how that happened. I think maybe plastic not good quality and not flexible at all! When you place it on the paint can, you really have to make sure it is snug on the can. i had to keep pushing it down until i heard it clip in, no problem. Maybe next time, i will buy a different brand, better quality that won't crack so easy. Because it cracked on 3rd day, i do not recommend this one.

This fit "old-fashioned" metal paint gallon cans. It did not work on the newer plastic gallon cans from Sherwin-Williams. I don't know about other brands. And, of course, it doesn't work on smaller sizes at all.For most purposes, the simple plastic shields that clip to the can lip work just as well as this, better in that they are easier to clean and have less surface with paint on them to clean up. They also work with any size can.What this pourer does better is provide extra space for stirring and you can pour from a full can of paint without having it run around the edge the way it will with the partial shields if you aren't VERY careful. That makes it a worthwhile tool if you are opening a lot of metal gallon cans of paint.

Very simple add-on for a paint can, but for me it was essential! I needed to pour some of the gallon in a small container, and I didn't want it to spill everywhere!This did the trick as promised!It "snapped" (for lack of a better word) securely into the gallon can. You have to pour holding the can not the handle (not an issue for me). And very little paint spilled (a drop from the spout was all).Clean up was easy as it washes well and the paint comes right off of it - ready for another use!Well worth it to save the frustration of spilling everywhere!
