NJKen 23 Posted February 24, 2015 you need the opener. If that is not available, cut the rim off with a pair of sheet metal sheers! Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rightisright 3 Posted February 25, 2015 Use a wide screwdriver or old chisel and hammer around the inside lip of the can. Get about 1/2 around and pop up top. Be careful of sharp edges. Or borrow a purpose-made opener from a friend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MongoX 0 Posted February 25, 2015 i use an angle grinder on mine - grind the top edge, and you will see it split when done. The top comes right off - about 3 minutes and no sharp edges. just saw carl g's video - yup, that's the way i do it, but the pads i use on my grinder take a bit longer.
