I have a nice Adtech glue gun that has worked well for about five years, but now gets clogged, I think.
It is fine for a couple of minutes, then less and less glue comes out.
If I pull out the glue stick, about two inches is so hot it’s clear and limp, so I believe it is heating just fine, and overheating the glue that cannot get out.
I put in a new stick, it works well for a few minutes, then less and less glue comes out. Repeat.
any suggestions for cleaning?
I could try an atomic pull (3D printer declog technique, where you let it cool partway, then pull the stick out), but I’m afraid the trigger will break, so I’d like to try a less drastic approach first. .
