The nozzle got stuck on my 505 spray adhesive. I watched the whole can spray out and was about to cry because it is not cheap. I realized it could have been much worse it it had happened inside. It was raining a fine mist and it was so amazing that it looked like smoke coming from the can. I should had grabbed my camera ,but I did not have presence of mind to do so. Remarkably, because of the rain, the gooey sticky mess did not stick to the deck. Has anyone else ever has this happen. Kay

I think they are in France. I bought several cans before the last price increase. I bought them from ShoppersRule.com Maybe I should contact them. They are a USA company.

I think that was the reason as I tried to spray and it was bubbling around the nozzle and I pulled it off to see if I could clean it up some what and when I stuck the nozzle back on is when it happened. I couldn't even pull it back off. It was awful!

Wow, have never had that happen. I am glad you were able to get it outside and not have it happen in the house. It does look like a can of snow now.

So glad the mess was outside, never had this happen at all. I would let the company you bought it from know what happened, just may be there would be some compensation. Good luck. Sandra.

Wow! What a lovely treasured piece of art you have made Miss Katydid! I don't want one like it...but it is very unique! :) Glad this was outside and not in the most important room of your house.

I feel your pain. In the past, have pulled the nozzle off a spray can to get it to stop spraying everywhere. "Stuff" can build up between the little spout and the nozzle.

Rather than thinking about the cost of the lost product, think about the entertainment value of experience. It hurts then a little less.

Wow, that would scare me..I'm glad you didn't get hurt or have a heart attack. You should write to the company - ODIF - and tell them what happened. Even if you don't clean it - it shouldn't explode like this. Send them the photos of the can and explain that it was scary and that it sprayed all over your deck. They should at least send you a new can of 505, assuming you still want to use their product.

It was your lucky day, jane
