Abstract: An ergonomic adapter for an aerosol spray can. The ergonomic adapter has an elastomeric collar that fits around a body of an aerosol spray paint can such that a front portion of the collar is facing in front of the can just below the interface between the body and the domed top of the spray can. The front of the adapter includes a compartment that houses a polychromatic light source for lighting the surface and/or a light beam arrangement for targeting and positioning the spray can with respect to the surface.

Abstract: An ergonomic adapter for an aerosol spray can helps to reduce finger pain and hand fatigue. The ergonomic adapter has a collar that fits around a body of an aerosol spray paint can such that a front portion of the collar is facing in front of the can just below the interface between the body and the domed top of the spray can. An arcuate finger strip extends upward from the rear side of the collar and over the push-button nozzle on the spray can when the adapter is fitted onto the body of the spray can. The collar and the arcuate finger strip are made of a resilient, flexible material such as butyl rubber. The arcuate finger strip preferably has a concave upper surface. The collar has enlarged traction pads positioned to facilitate gripping by the user. When the user grips the ergonomic adapter, the user's index finger rests in the concave, arcuate finger strip.
