I have used Deft for many years. Just pour some into your empty sanding sealer jar and you have the perfect set-up with unlimited refills. Less volume to evaporate too.

Good way to go on Titebond too. They sell both Titebond I and II by the gallon at Home Depot.

Hmmm. I've GOT to get me some now! Can you post a photo of the can? I have a BORG (not 7 of 9) 1/2 mile from my house. I'll get over there when I can walk again.

Yep, I did just that. Opening and then resealing a quart-sized can gets old.

Tip: On paint cans, use a brad nail to punch a few holes in the recess at the top of the can. The liquid drains back, and the lid seals the holes when you close up the can. I still wipe the recess before putting the lid back on, to minimize buildup, but it is a lot less to mop up.

Aero Gloss does NOT gum up paper providing you sand with the CORRECT paper/film.
I use K&S flexi-grit washable sanding film.
It is available in variety paks in ANY decent hobby shop.
Generally I use the two black and one orange sheets.
Throw out the red and tan sheets; they are FAR too fine to be of ANY value.
