The other bonus is that the nail product has a very nice squirt bottle. Even though the nail product is more expensive by volume, less goes to waste.
Yeah, I hate that kind of thing. I bought some solvent for cleaning up and removing cured thread locker compound, super glue, etc. Loc-tite sells small bottles (1.75 ounces) for around $35 a pop. They know they have you over a barrel.
I could have bought an entire gallon for $100 ($70 + $30 Hazmat) from a racing fuel supplier (nitromethane) but I didn't want that much sitting in my basement. And I can't store it in my outdoor shed during the summer months because of the flashpoint. (95° F)
