...does it really need a lid? Does it make that much difference if the can is lidded or not?
...just asking, as it's never occurred to me to relid a can, unless it was almost crushed or had been flattened out...and DB: the before-and-after photos are proof you do great work, to be sure...
...it's just never bothered me - I'm looking at the graphics on the sides of the can...
...as to value: it depends on the can...if someone found a case or two of Gulfpride Diesel quarts (with the buses around the top of the can) that had never been filled or lidded (or even ones that had the lids cut out) does anyone think they wouldn't get snapped up in no time, just because they weren't ever filled or lidded? It seems to me that if there are a zillion unfilled cans of a particular brand, a lidded one wouldn't be that much more valuable just because it had a lid...
