To open a can of paint, you would use a lever, specifically a paint can opener or a flathead screwdriver. The lever allows you to apply force at one end to lift the lid at the other end, making it easier to open the can. This simple machine amplifies your effort and provides the necessary leverage to remove the lid efficiently.
