aerosol spray gun handle ?

My middle finger is welded almost in a fist position from scare tissue build up from hitting all my life from wrenching an slipping and hitting my knuckle. It ,s getting a little worse and is hard to use aerosol products, tire foam, carb cleaner paint etc. All the docters can do is brake the knuckle and set it in a postion I want and that requires surgery. I was hoping I would brake it myself as I have broke other fingers but no luck. Maybe go to Vegas and cheat and they will brake it for me LOL. Anyway, can anyone recommend a good one and are they universal for different size cans.I,m not good using left hand especially with paint cans

I don't know about universal, but Rustoleum has a couple of them that are available. The comfort-grip one costs a couple more bucks, but it's worth it.

They are pretty universal with some outliers in the can market.

I have used them on all the box store paint cans with almost no issues. Although I use rustoleum heavily.

.
Almost completely off topic: I was hunting around for pictures of said handle when stumbled across this...

Re: aerosol spray gun handle ?

I bought a very basic one years ago (probably cost me all of a buck) from a local surplus store, works great. As mentioned, there are a few outlier aerosol cans it won't snap onto, but the tremclad/rustoleum cans not a problem. Makes life a lot easier on the trigger finger. Looking for a photo, but I'm bit shocked at the prices of the ones I am finding.

Alex.
