Pouring devices for accurate blending of colour tinters to a base paint are known, but are generally of metal construction comprising a spout covered by a movable cover plate. Such devices produce accurate pouring due mainly to the rigidity of the metal components. The invention enables an accurate pouring device to be produced from plastics material. The pouring device comprises essentially two plastics components, a cover plate (3) and operating means (4) therefor being integral and providing one component and a spout (10) formed integrally with a support body (1) providing the other component. Connection means (6) are provided for detachably connecting the support body over an aperture (20) of its liquid container. The support body base (5) is elongate and engages over an extended area of the adjacent container wall (19) to provide a stable support and absorb loads applied during use. The connection means may include a threaded boss (25) forming part of a collar (21) which can be snap fitted into a standard-sized aperture, whereby the device can be used for a range of different sized and/or shaped containers.
