Hi got 2 cans of this today after not using it before, one can had the usual spray can ball bearing inside for mixing, the other didn't.

Is it faulty can? or not an issue? either way I've got a replacement on the way but still wondered.

how long did you shake it.. I have had the ball bearing take about a minute worth of shaking to get loose..

If you can't hear the ball shaking around after a min or two, call them. That's not natural.

thanks gave it a good shake and no noise, company is sending a replacement no questions.

Occasionally, with other sprays, the ball will get stuck in a corner or something and you have to tap the can on your hand or counter to loosen it. Good on Testors for replacing it without questions.

Sorry it wasn't testors it was a UK based company called Model Display Products, might as well give them the credit!

I've tried shaking and giving a bang off the table with no luck, it does weigh 2g grams less the other, but I assume they would have some natural varience anyway.

Not sure why I decided to weigh it, must be a slow day!
