A non-clog cap

[KP1972]

I have used Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax exclusively for a LONG time. It is great! But I get aggravated when the wax clogs and dries up in the spout cap. I either have to stop and poke something down it or completely clean it out with HOT water.
Not really a new product suggestion, but a product CONTAINER suggestion.
THANKS!!!!

Re: A non-clog cap

When I'm finished with a product in that type of bottle, I'll take the cap off (still open) and tap it on a paper towel on the work bench. Or like you (KP) said, rinse it with water for winter storage or a less frequently used product that might sit for a while.

I keep a nylon ty-rap on my bench & clean out the cap nozzle while the product is still wet to prevent clogging. Hope this helps.

Re: A non-clog cap

I've had this problem, but not with waxes. With Endurance for tires. What I do now is when I'm finished, I put the bottle upside and squeeze it a little so the product that is in the cap spits out.

Re: A non-clog cap

What I do when I use any product is that I just tap the bottom of the bottle without closing the cap, this way all the product that is still their will go down and then I close it, never had a problem with it

Re: A non-clog cap

I just tap my bottle on the ground a few times to get the product out of the nozzle. If for some reason that doesn't work, I squeeze it rapidly a few times and that will blow it out of the nozzle (obviously that doesn't work with a full bottle lol).

Re: A non-clog cap

The trick I've come up with for any type of squeeze application whether it's wax or mustard, is this;

When you're all done, slowly squeeze the bottle to push some air out. Once you've got it collapsed a bit, grab it the other way and squeeze so it QUICKLY pulls air back in.

It usually keeps the nozzles of any container very clean.
