1. A lid for use with a container for bulk material, the lid comprising:
(a) an annular flange for sealing the lid to the container, the flange having an internal peripheral edge; (b) a skim plate having an outer peripheral edge and an aperture sized to receive a barrel of a device for dispensing bulk material, the aperture having an annular edge; (c) a first annular tear strip disposed between the outer peripheral edge of the skim plate and the internal peripheral edge of the annular flange to release the skim plate from the annular flange; (d) a small disk portion having an outer peripheral edge, the small disk portion disposed in the aperture of the skim plate; (e) a second annular tear strip disposed between the outer peripheral edge of the small disk portion and the annular edge of the aperture of the skim plate to release the small disk portion from the skim plate; and (f) the flange, skim plate, small disk portion, the first annular tear strip and the second annular tear strip, all comprising a unitary molded article; whereby, subsequent to removal of the first and second annular tear strips, withdrawing of the bulk material from the container into the barrel of the device for dispensing bulk material is facilitated through the aperture such that the skim plate rests on top of bulk material remaining in the container to minimize curing or drying of the bulk material. |
