I had a small ceiling hole to fix the other day.My buddy stepped through it.,,.LOL....You can bet, I gave him a very hard time about it.He had everything there to fix it,when i got there.But something to spray it with.
So,After a few beers,and still giving him a hard time.I had a massive brain fart.In one of my tool bags was a caulk gun, i pulled the plug out of the back of the tube,cleaned it out,cut the top off flat,Filled it with aristex????Put my thumb on the top of he tube,pulled the trigger a few times got the pressure built up,removed my thumb and sprayed the ceiling.Not only did it work,it worked great.
just a little trick,that might help out out sometime.

I guess no one liked my little trick.

I don't know if liking or not likeing it is the point, a neat trick, I would not have thought of trying it, but I have two small hand pump sprayers for touch up and repair of things like that, besides a full pledge hopper and even a large super tank for blowing on textures.

and I did file it in the back recesses of my mind as an emergency measure, to trying ever necessary,

I guess after reading it I really did not know how to respond. I saw it as a "If all else fails try this" trick.

thank you for posting the idea.
