Re: Resealing spongless carts

Re: Resealing spongless carts

2005-04-23 by Gary Brown

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to more easily reseal the spongeless
carts for the 1280. The small soft plastic plugs are a real pain to insert
(literally, you should see the tip of my thumb).

Tape has been mentioned and does not seem to work. Has anyone tried using
hot melt glue, if so how secure is the seal and how hard is it to remove. I
would appreciate any suggestions.

My thumbs thank you in advance.

Hot melt glue works great, though it can be hard to remove.

The first few times I removed the glue, it wasn't hard to do.

The last time I removed the glue, it was a little difficult. I don't 
know why.

Ask Paul Roark. He has a lot of experience with the re-fillable carts.
