I tried that. They always seem to disappear before the can is empty. I wind
up with several cans that have just a little left, and no stick. Then I buy
a new can and use the stick from that to finish the old can, thereby
shortening the life span of the new stick proportionately. I think the life
span of a spray can stick is about 68-72% of the life of the can it came
with. It is therefore necessary to have an outside source of spray can
sticks.
