aerosol can
Spray paint container
An aerosol can is a metal container that dispenses its contents as a fine spray or mist, using pressurized gas as a propellant.
The spray emerges when a valve is pressed, releasing everything from paint to insecticide to whipped cream: Shake the aerosol can before spraying.
Environmental concerns in the 1970s led to bans on certain propellants that damaged the ozone layer.
