Abstract: A metallic container having a cylindrical body is overlaid with an outer layer of thermoplastic material which has a suitable thickness and sectional shape, and it is used as a pressure-proof container such as a spray container. The metallic container is manufactured by forming a plastic layer on the outside of the body part of a metallic cylinder, necking the part of the container from a shoulder portion to an upper-end opening portion, forming a plastic layer on the outside of the necked part, and curling the upper end of the container.
