Using Pectin to Repair Wrappers...

[CigarNut]

So I have some pectin which I have used a couple of times with a long paint brush, which is a PIA if I am having to repair a wrapper anywhere outside my home.

Someone at a recent herf had a little bottle with a small brush -- like a finger-nail-polish bottle/brush. He said a friend got it at a pharmacy. I have searched through the local pharmacies and have not found anything close.

So how do you guys store and apply your pectin?

I was actually going to ask where I could find some some... but in the interest of not thread jacking, I'll send a PM.

I bought one from this thread. Perhaps there's another bottle or two...

You might check the Dollar store or check at the cosmetics counter. Girls use them to make custom nail polish colors. :tu

All their sandwiches are 9 lbs? Those must be some big ass subs.

There is a product called "Cigar Glue" that I've seen on cigar shop counters from time to time .

I'm guessing this stuff isn't toxic in anyway if you smoke the area it's applied to...

It's food grade so no it's not toxic.

I purchased the same stuff from Field, and its come in quite handy and saved many a cigar!

Considering my wife uses pectin for canning jam/jellies, it better not be toxic. :)
