GT-85 squirty issue

[PeteXXX]

Is it just me, or has GT-85 got a squirty issue?

Seems to be leaking out HERE, as well as out of the spout.
Not just happening on this can, but the previous one as well.

My good friend is a scientist and is the top guy at Precision Valve.
He's spent over 30 years creating these valves..propellant and delivery of chemicles etc via these delivery systems.

I'll tell him his life's achievements and claims are a complete crock of shyte..

I use Duck Oil in the pump action bottle. Can't beat a good pump when you need lubing.

Pull the red straw and white cap off. Clean everything and it'll work properly again if there's no moulding defect. A can of GT85 might help clean it.... oh, wait

Have you given it a good hard press down to the stop (to seat the cap one the nozzle).

This thread is one giant double entendre.

Yes. I squirted a nearby hanging basket

nobody seems concerned about the Machete !!!
defo a terror attack in the making here ..gt85 flame thrower then the chopping starts.....
that said, an excellent risk assessment in place, so the user is safe and unlikely to harm themselves while working to their inevitable demise

Massage the long thin red thing for a few minutes then jam it hard into the hole. Job done.

That's not where it's getting moist though.

Does it work without the straw? Because maybe they mixed up the straws with the plastic sticks.
