Magnetic Lid Lifter Keeps Finish Off Your Hands
Here is a handy way to lift off and replace the lids of paint and varnish cans without getting the gooey stuff on your fingers. Just glue a small magnet to a stick. I used a small magnet from a speaker, but a rare-earth magnet would work well, too.
After you loosen the lid with a screwdriver, simply place the magnet-stick on the lid, lift it off, and turn it over when you set it aside.
