Those Annoying Child-Proof Lids

I feel your pain.  I have two bottles of Watco in my shop that cannot be reopened, short of a hydrogen bomb.  I've chalked it up as a loss, as any aggressive method could only result in me being covered in Watco.

 

Drill two holes through the top of the can...one to pour it out and one to let in air...transfer to new container...problem solved.

Yes, that is what I was talking about. It pries the lid off much more effectively than a screwdriver and doesn't damage the rim so it reseals better.
