BTW, how do you keep a partial cartrige alive? You don't need a lot to
make a good joint. When you consider spoilage PU works out a lot more
expensive than epoxy. I buy Gorilla in the smallest bottles just to
keep it fresh.


based on information posted in this newsgroup some time ago I wrap in a
plastic bag and freeze it. I've since read in a different newsgoup that
refrigeration(?) works and you don't have to wait for it to thaw. Have not
tested that. I put it in the sun or near a hot air register to thaw an
hour before I want to use it, which requires some planing. a small plug
will solidify in the nozzle. the plug can be extracted with a wood screw.
I've frozen the PL Premium for months.

I also keep "empty" tubes of adhesive and caulking to be cut open and the
dregs dug out with a putty knife or similar for small jobs. There's
actually quite a lot left in there.
