ah, but which way do you use the gun ? forwards or backwards ?
if done properly, forwards, there's hardly ever a need for any finishing.
Could you elaborate? I'm not sure what you mean.
Andrew
if you are /filling/ a void
cut the nozzle to the correct diameter for the gap
squeeze the trigger on the gun whilst pushing forwards
said tube-gak forces it's self into the void and finishes it's self off
if you are /laying/ a bead of tube-gak instead of filling then pulling the gun
backwards means you're better able to judge the size of the bead
If you're pushing you don't need to "judge the size of the bead"
is what I said. as long as you /either/ modulate the pressure on the trigger
and cut the nozzle to the right size you shouldn't need to 'finish off'
whatever works for you.
