How to Use the Skinny Cap
Origin of the Skinny Cap | How to Use the Skinny Cap |

  • It will take several tries to get the hang of making a good Skinny Cap. My last one was so good, I used it for three years.
  • Always hold the can upright. Don't tilt the can sideways when you paint, or the paint may spill out.
  • Wear latex or non-latex gloves. This technique is messy.
  • Paint will gather in the cap quickly. Pour it out often so that your lines are clean. Too much paint in the cap with give you a spray that spits too much.
  • Wipe the cap and blow the hole to keep it clear.
  • Bring an X-acto or something with you to clear the hole in case the paint dries and clogs it.
  • Different nozzles will give you different results.
