Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Replacement Stopper for Rubbermaid Essence and RotopaX Containers: Retain Freshness and Spill-Proof Versatility by Roger King

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Makes my wife happy.

My wife, who does most of our house mowing grass and blowing snow, HATES those new gas bottle spouts that always spilled so much expensive gasoline on the floor. So I ordered some of these replacement nozzles to keep my old gas cartridges from aging when we normally expect them to still work. Now that winter is fast approaching, my wife said it was time to get her snowblower ready, but when As I tried to insert the tip of my beautiful new nose into the snowblower's tank, I was very confused at how stiff and inflexible it was. n-like roar everywhere. I just assumed that at the crucial moment he would go down like I wanted. But this plastic is thick and hard. I was so angry. it didn't look much better than newfangled spouts when dealing with a full can of gas. Fortunately, my grandfather runs a workshop with almost every imaginable tool. Looking around his shop, I quickly realized that all of these problems could be solved with Grandpa's electric heat gun. I think it would be VERY easy to melt a hole in your new $10 spout if you're not careful, but by not getting too close and keeping everything in constant motion, I managed that sweet spot between too hot and too meet cold, and soften this stiff spout until it bends slightly. Holding it in the long-awaited flexed position, I dipped it in cold water and finally experienced a great sense of satisfaction as the chilled plastic maintained that folded shape perfectly. After that, I was able to fill up the snowblower without wasting a single drop of gas.
