How to Make the Adapt Paste Nozzle Smaller for Precise Application

This topic is about finding a way to apply Hollister Adapt Paste more precisely by creating a smaller nozzle. This can be particularly useful for those who find the standard opening too wide for their needs. Here are some helpful tips and insights:

1. The standard opening on a tube of Hollister Adapt Paste might dispense a bead that is too wide or thick for some users.

2. A simple do-it-yourself solution is to use the tapered plastic nozzle from a building-grade sealant or caulking cartridge. You can push this nozzle over the mouth of the Adapt Paste tube, and it should fit snugly.

3. You can cut the tip of the sealant nozzle to the diameter you need, whether small, medium, or large, to lay down a narrower and more controlled line of paste.

4. This method is particularly useful when filling the inner edge of Salts Healthcare "Salts Collar" washers, providing an extra leak-proof seal.

5. To prevent the paste from drying out between uses, you can screw a spare tire-valve cap or any small cap that fits onto the end of the added nozzle.

6. The person who came up with this idea uses Adapt Paste mainly as an internal filler for Salts Seals with Collar and has found that this combination has completely eliminated leaks.

7. Another forum member, who was already familiar with Hollister Adapt Lubricating Deodorant, appreciated the tip and plans to include Adapt Paste in their next supply order after learning about this precision-nozzle hack.
