Rich:
Try buying it from Costco or somesuch. Lots cheaper. You can also place the
can into a bowl of warm water (NOT above 120 degrees Fahrenheit!) between uses
(I use this trick for propellant used in airbrushing, where you need pressure
far more often than during cleaning). But I carry an air bulb in the field.
