Excellent advise, thanks. But 16 oz of CA? That will last up to my last years.
My next of kin will have to discard the rest :lol:

I started using the pipette method described here and wow, what a difference. I'm using Starbond thin and medium, I'll get the gel later. I also have a fridge in my basement to keep it in. Life is good.

LMI sells some really nice pipettes with a really fine tip for getting just the right amount of CA where I want it. Can't find the ones that they sell anywhere else.

I don't know who's cheaper but Amazon has them https://www.amazon.com/Globe-Scientific ... B09C6PY1WF

Just checked, these are way cheaper. We use them for de-capping ICs with acid. Just need a tiny drop.

BTW, if you have a Hobby Lobby in your town, they sell pipettes and quality CA. I had always ordered it.

These are the ones I like as well for thin and even medium.
