I've used similar ones, but once I broke a jar of Tamiya grey, which was enormously obstinate.

Cut the bottle, and move the paint to a new one. If you've had the problem once, it will happen again many times. When you change the paint bottle, if it is acrylic, add a few drops of paint revitalizer to recover the paint a little.
