Hey guys,

A company sells spare nozzle packs that work with great stuff and other
brands. They are in my local hardware store, www.xtendafoam.com , saves me
the hassle of trying to clean out a nozzle or throw away half used cans.

Is there a way to use only part of a can of urethane

spray, and save the rest to use later? I find if you
don\'t use it all
right away the nozzle and dispenser tube permanently clog.


Do like I do and take extra ones from the existing cans at the
Borg. That
leaves the can unsaleable and it gets returned to the supplier.

If they can\'t make a product that will allow you to use more
than 20%, they
deserve returns.

They should also clearly display disposable gloves with the product
as
well.


I\'ve cleaned the plastic tube out with wire, 14 gauge after it has
hardened(like the next usage) and also cleaned out the part in the
aerosol can with the same wire, and it worked no problem.


I think the plastic tube can come apart also, making it easier to
clean.


I like the idea of sticking a wire into the tube after usage, that
would make it easy to clean.
