How can I stop the bottle tips from getting clogged with cured
cyanoacrylate??
There are several answers:
- See FAQ Storage for storage
techniques.
- Using our Change-A-Tip product
allows easy change of clogged tips without having to cut back the clogged
tip. This keeps a precision tip for maximum application control.
A clogged Change-A-Tip can be used as a cap for storage then replace it
with a clean tip for use. Clogged Change-A-Tips can be put into
acetone to extend its use. Dry the tip thoroughly before reuse.
- For standard bottle tips, lightly tap the bottle to help the cyanoacrylate
drain from the tip back into the bottle.
"Burping" or slightly squeezing the bottle when upright to force
the small amount of CA out of the tip will also work. Use caution and
use eye protection.
- Many high volume users just leave the cap off the tip and store it on the
shelf.
