Why Do Aerosol Cans Have Paint Inside the Cap?

Question: Why do aerosol cans have paint inside the cap?

Answer: It’s not broken.

The paint inside the cap is part of our aerosol filling system. This is how it works. The cap is placed into the filling machine. Paint is then added to the aerosol can. The aerosol can is then inserted into the filling machine and the cap is pushed to the top along with the paint.
