Decorating Paint Cans

How can I decorate a paint can to give as a gift. I would want it to be permanent and look brand new, not hand made. Where would I buy a new empty can?

Here's a gift wrapping idea using new paint cans. They were available at Lowe's in 2005, and I believe home depot.

I know you can buy plain silver empty paint cans at walmart and home depot. I am not sure what you want them to look like as in brand new. if you want it look like a can that has been used with paint, you can try slowly dripping it around the edges for a cool effect. Or for something nicer you can use ribbons and flowers.
