Spray can trigger handle. My gawd does my finger love this little device. Every workshop should have one. Primer, paint, clearcoat, bugspray, polyurethane, silly string, barbecue paint, carburetor cleaner, anything.

That's why you have eight fingers and two thumbs. When one gets tired of holding the nozzle down switch to another one.

Don't you think that this would give you more control? Plus, no spray drips from paint getting on your fingers..

(I have huge sausage fingers..I can't take a photograph without my fingers getting in the way)

I use those on rattle cans. It was a good use of $3 or so.

I just hit Home Depot last night... TWICE (Don't ask... ugh) and they've got these can triggers in their painting area, hanging on the frames from those dangly plastic display thingies that everyone always seems to knock down. $4 here. It's invaluable. Great amount of control. Once you aim the spray nozzle straight out the trigger, it's far easier to accurately paint cuz the gun shape aims for you. Also less wrist strain, I've noticed last night.
