OMG, I could not find my GooGone in the car, and had to use Remove pads. That stuff burned my cuts like fire! Hated it!

Thank goodness I found the GooGone the next day. And I have to say, I let someone use GooGone and he said that thing came right off!

I will NOT miss that particular part of cave diving!

:confused:
 

The GooGone . . . it works really well, and at a few bucks a bottle (spray gell), you can get yourself clean. Also, it soaps right off so you don't have to worry about oils, like baby oil. Takes a bit of soap, though.

You would understand this better if you saw the godawful mess my car was. The GooGone had slid under a seat.
 
were you leak free for class? anything else new to report?

I think I actually had other problems. I shoved aquaseal in my "balanced" part of the P-valve, because it was for sure leaking.

I'm not absolutely sure the 'leak' was from operator error (lost the cap!) or the hose itself. Sigh. Lots of troubleshooting to do.
 
Ladies, I beg your pardon for the question I am about to ask. I think I may have left myself 'short'. Hook-ups were a little awkward.

So . . . measuring from the reservoir, how long is your weenis?
 
Mine is original length & also original length on the p-valve hose. I just kind of do a bit of a U-ey on it. I have had decent luck with it until the last bottle of adhesive. I have yet another bottle & will give that on a "go". If I start having success again,.. I think I can determine where the problem is (possible bad batch of glue).
 
From the reservoir to the end of the silicone is 3"; I have a QD on which brings the whole length to 4.5". I do not use a norprene extension, but simply curve the hose from the valve and plug directly into the QD. I did have to ziptie the QD in, though, because it would pull out from the stress. No problems with kinking.
 
Thanks, Tammy!

I'd heard of ladies . . . erm, standing at the tree, but mine is too short to do that safely. Also, the quick disconnect is on some tender skin, and when I tighten my belt and crotch strap, it made some definite marks! (ouch)

I thought if I made it longer, so that the joint is not at a compression place in my rig, it would be more comfortable. :idk:
 
yes, jax - my weenis is 3-4in. it double-barbs to the she-p, and the quick disconnect is at the other end. that keeps the qd away from any bony bits. a plus is that i can then wee out the top of my pants or a fly! :) then the valve hose is long and does a loop up past my bellybutton & down to my not-quite-inner thigh.

y'all are scaring me with the stories of less sticky urobond - i just bought a new jar, too.
