wtnhighlander Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Must be a hole somewhere. Set it down on a protruding nail or screw point maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I could find, the top was a bit rusty but nothing on the bottom. Just glad I caught it before the whole can had drained. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chet Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Definitely weird considering it's water borne, that seems like the least likely candidate for causing a leak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpt life Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Many cans are crimped together. Leaks may be rare, but not unheard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
