Bought a gallon of paint from a local hardware store last week and as I reached to put it on the floor of the passenger side, it dumped on my lap, the seat, the center console, and spattered on the door panel. They admit the lid wasn't attached properly, but they're not sure that it's their responsibility since I had left the store and it happened in THEIR parking lot. First bid was $8,000.

This is horrible beyond belief. I'm really sorry to hear that. Certainly the right atty can help negotiate some settlement. It certainly has to be leak proof. I've been credited the paint cost for a lid that came off and dumped in my truck bed.

This is a horrible story, bro.
