I know what decanting is, what`s the best way to do it? There`s several colors out there that seem to be " rattle can only", and I`d like to use them through my airbrush. Thanks for your help....Len

Using a straw seems to be the preferred method, look at this link;

This link says to shake the bottle until all the bubbles are gone. If you do this, and the bottle doesn't explode, you'll probably have paint all over the place when you remove the cap. The best way is to stir gently and let it sit open for a while for the propellant to outgas. When you can stir hard with no bubbles, it's probably OK to put the cap on.

What I do is remove the nozzle from the head and insert a brass tube the fits inside the opening. I then spray it into a bottle and let deair. Using the brass tube is not as messy as using a straw.
