Ever try to sell a baseball card back to the place
you purchased it?

Me neither.

Yeah, he gives away "THREE FREE WITH EVERY PURCHASE!", and sometimes
has been known to sneak some pussy into your truck before you leave
his house. Luckily, he didn't put one in mine 'cuz I'm allergic. (to
cats, not pussy, thank Crom)

There is a fire sale on mortgage - backed derivatives, too.

Ooh, touchy, touchy. g My recollection of Elephant, as it was sold in
Europe at the time (1968) was that four short cans, about half the size of
a
regular can, were enough to knock me off my barstool. Nobody told me about
the alcohol content.

You know the options, guy. Either rig up a filling adapter and
stuff in the proper propellant with the spray can upside down, or grab
a church key and have an empty dauber can handy.

Doesn't make the product worthless, just adds a little challenge.

Of course. Ive got plastic dauber bottles everywhere...chuckle

I understand that one can charge up spray cans, Ive never tried it.

And why does Kroil always run out of propellent before the can is empty?

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"

You know -- you don't *have* to have a cat to find the clumping
litter useful -- depending on where you live. Some of that scattered on
ice improves the traction (automotive or personal foot) significantly.

Good Luck,

If you're driving a hatchback, and you want to carry some along
with you for ice away from home, you probably *do* want it to be new.

You *could* drive with the windows down -- but if it is the time
of year when icing is likely, you probably won't want to. :-)

Enjoy,

I made an adapter to recharge my paint rattle cans:
http://home.comcast.net/~bobengelhar...anAdapter2.jpg

It screws into the valve of a propane torch. I.e., in place of the
tube. In use, I wear rubber gloves and wrap the can in a rag - there
will be leakage.

There are two types of valves on pressurized cans - inies & outies.
This is for inies & might not work on the Dykem cans.
