You can re-pressurize aerosol cans with propane. I made an adapter for
recharging paint rattle cans:

It screws into the valve of a propane torch. I.e., in place of the
tube. Aerosol cans have different style valves & each style requires its
own adapter.

that's pretty cool bob (and don).
just curious, the obvious question, how do you know now much gas to put in
the aerosol can? it is a "by ear" thing or is it not possible to over
pressurize a paint can using a propane tank?

b.w.
