what solvent cleans up (dissolves) this product – (a) when it's just out of the tube and still wet?; (b) when it's fully expanded and set up? Thanks!

Nail Polish remover works when it is still wet. But, you have to put a lot of elbow grease into it. I'm not sure what cleans it up after it is dry. Good luck! It's a wonderful product!

sorry I thought it was the other product I used, same cleanup and carve the excess dry with an exacto knife.

I can't remember what I used to cleanup..either paint thinner or acetone I'm guessing..but it is really sticky gooey wear rubber gloves as you will get it on your hands. It swells up a lot. I used it to keep out carpenter bees in my facia. After it swelled and dried I took an exacto knife and trimmed away the excess. Sadly yesterday I noticed sawdust on my deck..one had burrowed through although it states that it deters them...not my NJ Carpenters!...lol

I don't think this product was formulated to dissolve into solution. If it does not, the sprayer orifice will clog.

I don't actually know. But I've used it for years, and generally a tube lasts a long time before it's used up. And I've never had it reach a point where I couldn't use it. I always keep it well capped, and sometimes have even inserted a straight pin in the opening before capping the tube.

I never tried to dissolve it in water. I know for a fact you can put it in a blender and it would break it apart.

It's been a few months since I used mine, so I can't recall what the instructions say, but once the plug in is connected to the vial, the entire unit must be upright when used. That is the only way the liquid can be properly "wicked up" and diffused into the air. Hope this helps.

They dissolve instantly in the liquid. I usually just put them in my water bottle and shake it up. :)

That is correct Mike. This is a cleaner and lube in one. It won't leave excess residue either. Works great.

I don't dilute it. I don't think it's made to be diluted with water. It's great stuff I really like it.

I have only used this unit to extract oil and tranny fuel, as far as cleaning I just used the vacuum to clean it. What ever residue that was left in the tube I just left it. My best guess would be to used a dishsoap water solution such as Dawn. Run it thourgh a couple of times, then let it dry. By the way I love this thing.

From what I understand it is made to partially dissolve in the stomach and then the rest dissolves in your intestine. I love this product. Been taking it steady for two years now.

I rinsed mine out about 3 times in a gallon container half full of tap water. Then i started using it. The more water you put it in the longer it needsto treat. I put two in a gallon of distilled water overnight. I shake it up for a minute when i first put it in and again for a few seconds if i wake up during the night. Its always good by morning. Hope that helps.

I have no idea. I've always cleaned the entire unit. I'm not sure I want to separate the tip from the tube.

Several comments on the Great Stuff BIG GAP Filler (similar product, but expands to greater than 1") list ways of cleaning the tube and nozzle with acetone for repeat uses. The key seems to be: clean while the product is still wet; if you wait until foam remnants have hardened, you're out of luck. /haven't used product myself yet; merely sharing info found on another Amazon page

I only use the tubing for making prototypes of vacuum-packing systems, not for actually selling or using the tubing in products. I do not run fluids through the tubing, and hence have never had to clean it. If I had to, I would clean the tubing by flushing it with a mix of dishwater detergent and water, and rinsing it with plain water.

Unfortunately, it doesn't dissolve completely and takes a long time. The solubility increases once you raise the temperature of the liquid. I usually put it in warm water and shake it every time i take a sip. This way it does not stay on the bottom and floats throughout the liquid. Also, you only need 2 teaspoons to achieve 5000mcg or 5gm. Hope this helps.

Hi EtezadkhahMy guess (and only guess based on odor) that the underlying epoxy is Hysol. I Googled on Hysol and did not find any solvent listed. I did read the other replies and while I have some absolute alcohol on hand (used to desolve shellac to make varnish) it is not all that easy to buy, illegal to sell in the state of Florida, they fear someone would drink it! Oh well. You have a tough problem. You can keep Googling on Hysol maybe there is a solvent for it some where. Maybe you can try "super glue" solvent. Just possible that this epoxy is designed to never let loose.Joe Hi EtezadkhahMy guess (and only guess based on odor) that the underlying epoxy is Hysol.

It comes in an oblong solid that I cut up to dissolve easier. Hope this helps.
