Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the new precision glue tips from Mission Models.
How do you keep these things clean ?
Mine always dryup after use and therefore cannot be used a second time.
Anyone has any suggestions ?

It says they can...... I've never had much luck reusing any tip that has dried CA in it... even soaking it in Debonder.

My issue with the nylon type is I always seem to get leaks around where they go over the original tip. These look like they might have the same issue. Any tips, pardon the intentional pun, to keep this from happening on either type?
