Cleaning Clogged CA Glue Dispensers

Clogged tips and tubing can be cleared after soaking in Acetone. Usually overnight is adequate time. Use a syringe to blow out and the same tips can be reused indefinetly.


Its good to remind us of that occasionally, especially since the building season is approaching much of the Northern Hemisphere!

Also make sure you keep a few extra tips around for use while the others are soaking!

Just remember acetone and CA are nasty, if you get it in your eye. ALWAYS use eye protection when"blowing" either. Be safe. Donald
