Awesome new trick I just stumbled across

[rdn2blazer]

I was out in the garage cleaning a milling vise and stumbled across a cool trick I though I'd share. Some may have already seen or known this little trick, but I bet most have not. I had an almost empty can of carb cleaner with the red straw in the tip, and a new can ready to go.

I used up the old can and went to pull the straw out of the tip and pulled the tip and all of and didn't even realize it till I let go of the straw after installing it into the new can's tip. Then of course I saw it. Then I thought, hay I wonder if it bill spray out the tip, it should I figured. Of ocurse, it did.

So you have a 360deg, completely variable to ANY angle, right angle spray nozzel. . Bad ass! I thought that was a cool little trick I came across, thought I'd share. Use it, enjoy!

Why thank you kind sir! lol! I thought basically the same thing. Just before stumbling across this, I had another trick present itself to me, then this happened and I can't remember what the other thing was , so not to forget this I went and got the camera and took a picture so I wouldn't forget it.

We used to mix KRYLON paint colors like that.
Can to can.

Never thought of that 360* trick, tho.
Simple genius.

I JUST REMEMBERED THE OTHER IDEA!! lol!! Once the fluid runs out you have a super mini blow gun for very small cracks and or hard to reach areas. . Hay it works till the pressure runs out. I wouldn't suggest trying this with a paint can though. Only carb or brake cleaner.
