Super glue

I thought I would pass along a tip on super glue caps. I had a lot of problem with super glue cap getting stopped up after a few uses. I found out if I keep all the used ones in a jar of Acetone that it would get rid of all the old glue and be like new. Now when I get a new bottle ,when I use it, I will take and replace the new cap with one of the old caps thats clean.If it starts to stop up, I replace it with another used cap that's clean.If I'm not going to use it for a little while ,I replace the used cap with the new unopened cap for storage and it seams to last longer that way.
PS it also works on spray cans spray heads.

Great Tip! Since I build at a slugs pace I'm always battling the stopped up glue tips. Never even dawned on me to do this!

Ok...Maybe slower than a slugs pace 8-)
