Joe Goss >> Not absolutely true Joe....... I suppose it depends on the brand....... I use CA by DURO and it comes in 1 oz. tubes. The tube remains unopened and has an extremely long shelf life until opened. Opening the tube consists of screwing the applicator cap on which in turn breaks the seal and allows glue to flow through the applicator tip when the tube is squeeeeeeeezzed. :-) Duro comes in two viscosities in the 1 oz. tube..water thin and gel. These tubes may be kept in the car during summer and winter without going off for a long long long time if not opened. Cost in these tubes is 1.29 / 1.49 for a two tube pack...certainly within range of economical one use thingees........... Of course larger tubes/bottles are available for larger jobs but for the small quick repair these small tubes are the cat's pajamas!! Jim Bryant (FL)
