Any of you old-timers in the same fix I'm in? I was
trying to wrench the glass-slick cap off a spray can of
Minwax urethane finish last night, and these old hands
have lost so much grip strength since I was young that I
couldn't get the dang thing off no matter how I tried. I
was eventually reduced to jamming a long screwdriver
right through the cap and levering the wreckage off of
the can. When I was done I looked down at the mess I'd
made of it and just shook my head.
Your basic old Krylon cap is a bit easier, but not much.
Often I end up slipping a flat-bladed screwdriver tip
under one edge and levering it off, trying not to break
it in the process.
Anybody have any good ideas for me?

Thanks,
Tom

Try squeezing it a bit (make more oval) then pull.
