I recently stumbled into this excellent video from Jennifer McGuire on YouTube:
In the video Jennifer shares a fabulously amazing tip for keeping your fine-tip adhesives from clogging. I love Glossy Accents, but every single time I take it out to use, I have to grab a pin to unclog the tip. It takes a while and it's frustrating. Jennifer shares how she uses a Fine Line Applicator Cap to keep her nozzle from clogging. I **had** to try it.
These are the parts and pieces I had:
A bottle of Glossy Accents with its tiny tip and original cap, and the two parts of a purchased fine line applicator.
The only piece I was interested in was the needle cap that keeps the fine line applicator from getting clogged.
As you can see, the needle fits right into the bottle's opening:
I've had my bottle capped like this for about two weeks and it has been awesome!
Every single time I've reached for the Glossy Accents it has been ready to go without any clogs! What an awesome idea from Jennifer McGuire! I hope it's a helpful tip for you too!
Thanks for stopping by!

Brilliant and I can’t wait to get one. I hate spending time with a tooth pick trying to clear the tops of glues and such.

I do the same as Leslie. Works great, no money or time spent shopping for another supply. Just wipe nozzle, insert pin, put original cap. Voila!

I’ve done that in the past and the pin has rusted. Fine line tips don’t rust. 🙂

Wouldn’t it be great if Ranger would just redesign their Glossy Accents cap to include this non rust pin from the no clog tips?

This is AWESOME!
Now…if we can figure out a way to keep spray nozzles from clogging, all will be MAGICAL, right?

I Bought the small Glossy Accents and the special tip at a traveling craft show about 2 years ago. It has never worked properly and is harder to unclog than the plain Glossy Accents tip. The steel pin does not seem to be long enough nor wide enough. I would like to return this to exchange it for an updated product, if there is one, or a different product.
