How much does an empty spray can weigh?

Sometimes they goof in these areas. In fact it happens alot...return it for an exchange.

Only the military calls for specs to be perfect which is why a quart of oil in the Army costs 10X more than as a civilian. Same oil but the container has to be exactly 1 quart. Who weighs paint cans? Why did you think of that? Sort of an interesting idea. My brother once weighed a bag of dog food and found it was 2 pounds short. I just thought of that. Umm! Maybe, I'll start doing that.

If the empty can weighs "more than 4grams", then, say 5grams, then a full can should weigh 316grams. So one is 1gram less, and the rest are several grams more. Yes! you should certainly complain that they have given you too much paint!

yes

I recently bought a six pack if black plasti dip spray cans from amazon and they all weigh different. Ranging from 315grams to 323 grams. Net weight on the can reads 311grams. I feel can weighs more than 4grams when empty. Should i complain or is this expected?
