If the paint is that old, then it has solvents in it... probably enough that it could pop a lid at some point... Was the paint can right side up or do you store the cans upside down?? (I store them upside down when I put them on the shelf in the basement... to keep the air out and keep them from getting a skin on top of the paint..). BTW, the new solvent-less acrylic paints have a problem with rust around the lid if you don't clean them up really well after painting. I had noticed that, but it didn't register why that was until I was talking to a painter who said that it has to do with the low VOC levels...
