Maybe not. Found this in the drawer today, and just had to cut it open.
I’ll give that a whirlTrick with those is put a but of saran wrap over the opening then screw the cap on. Works.
Well, they "SAY" it's all in the attitude. lolYup, it does. But it makes me think I'm doing something, lol
The auto parts used to sell little winders that you could use to roll the rtv from the bottom up. It was a cheap sheet metal deal.
Makes application a breeze and pulls every last bit from the tube if you're careful when you wind it. And my winder equipped tubes don't seem to go bad near as fast.
Ask for em!
Now, a tube of caulk on the other hand... what's the trick?
Ha, we cut a square hole in the side of the hand cleaner jug once the pump won’t squirt out any cream… seems like it’s an 1/8th of the jug left in the bottom…I had a pump bottle of Gold bond itch cream (stuff is awesome) and I ran out. Well, I was in a pickle as this foot was itching so bad I could not sleep so I took the bottle out of the trash, cut it open and there was a good portion still in the bottle to my relief. Slathered some on and was back asleep in 5 minutes according to my wife (whom I woke up itching my foot!) They sell super glue in little 5 packs now, call them "one use" tubes.
I put a roofing nail in the end of the cartridge nozzle. That seems to help.The auto parts used to sell little winders that you could use to roll the rtv from the bottom up. It was a cheap sheet metal deal.

I use a clothes peg on the toothpaste tube. Flatten it out and roll it up and put the peg on works greatHaven’t seen those in a while remember using them on toothpaste when I was a kid, haven’t seen them in years
I get them in every tube of silicone I get from supply. Its just a tin tube with a slit cut in it. Probably make one with a bandsaw and a piece of rod. Just pull it out with pliers when your done and reuse it.Haven’t seen those in a while remember using them on toothpaste when I was a kid, haven’t seen them in years
