    Whats everyone using to shoot glue. I bought a cheap tin one, never really got a good spray with it so tossed it bought a better siphon gun about 40 bucks and its not really working that great either. It seems everyone else pulls some gun off a hook shoots some glue than sets it back on the hook until needed again.

    I use a cheap $20 siphon gun from Harbor Freight and it works great. They last 2 to 3 years trouble free without any clogging. They'd probably last a lot longer if I didn't drop them on the floor as much. I'm so glad I made the switch from glue pots. Although others have had great experiences with them, my pots kept clogging on me and it was a daily battle to get them to shoot properly.

    I use a cheap siphon gun with a 1.8 tip, has lasted for years. From time to time the tip gets cleaned with the 3m adhesive remover. Even after sitting for awhile it stay sprays the same.

    I use a siphon gun as well. Did you know if you put a thin coating of white grease, or Vaseline on the tip, the adhesive build up will wipe rite off? The grease needs to be reapplied after wiping off. A real time saver.

    I also use a cheap siphon gun, once you get the air, glue and spray pattern dialed in properly it works great, until you drop it as mentioned by Naseem.

    Home depot had a pair of husky gravity feed paint guns on clearance for $20. I've had em foe about 5 yrs now. I used to go thru those cheap siphon guns about once a year.
