tru-oil spray can

[youngbowyer33]

mine stopped spraying..... ???It's still about half full, and it just stopped. I've tried shaking it for a long time, I've tried to clear the hole where it comes out, and it won't work. I'm in the middle of putting the finish on my first red oak bow, and i would like to finish it. Should i contact the company? thanks

Don't know if you know this but when you use a spray can, before and you put it up, you should turn it up side down and spray for a few seconds  until the nozzle clears. This way you won't have stopped up nozzles.

I have soaked stopped up nozzles in lacquer thinner and sometimes cleared them , sometimes.........

Try putting a different nozzle on.

Every can I  ever used did just that try soaking nozzle in acetone to clean it. Any more I buy the bottles and rub it on.
