How can I stop the bottle tips from getting clogged with cured cyanoacrylate??

There are several answers:

• See Basic Use 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. The Change-A-Tip storage cap can also be used during storage.  Clogged Change-A-Tips can cleaned with DeBonder or acetone to extend its use.  Dry the tip thoroughly before reuse to prevent contamination.
• 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.
• A nail or pin may be inserted into the nozzle tip.  This sometimes is a good answer if you are not concerned about a precision dispense.  Pliers may be required to remove the nail or pin.
• Many high volume users then just leave the cap off the tip and store it on the shelf out of direct sunlight. This may not be the best technique for long storage situations.
