Abstract: An aerosol primer composition includes a film forming component and a propellant component. The film forming component includes (by weight of the composition): (a) at least one of a polyurethane and alkyd from about 10% to about 20%, (b) cellulosic particles from about 2% to about 5%, and (c) an aqueous solvent system from about 20% to about 40%. The propellant component includes dimethyl ether. The aerosol primer composition can be stored within a spray assembly and the propellant component can be configured to pressurize the film forming component for dispensing from the spray assembly as an aerosol. The aerosol primer composition can be used to prime a substrate to be painted or stained.

Abstract: A molded polymeric container that is shaped to be easier to mold, have improved rigidity under pressure and improved strength includes a substantially cylindrical body portion having a longitudinal axis and a circumferential sidewall, and a bottom portion. The bottom portion includes a central pushup area that is substantially symmetrical about the longitudinal axis and that is substantially flat. The pushup area preferably has a radius that is within the range of 0.100 inches to 0.500 inches. The bottom portion further includes a plurality of support feet surrounding and protruding downwardly from the pushup area, each of which has a bottom support surface and a pair of sidewalls that help define a valley between the support feet. The sidewalls have a substantially straight portion that defines an angle with respect to a line that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and this angle is at least 25 degrees.
