What is the correct response when you find that your wife has been using a
1/4" wood chisel to pry open paint cans?

Bonus question: She asked me why the tip had the little plastic cover.

Show here the proper tool. Buy a paint can opener. Lowes gives these
away, free. Screwdrivers or chisels can damage the rim seal. If she
still doesn't get it, lock up your chisels.
