When I use any basting spray, the nozzle will get gummy. I have read hints of using baby wipes in the sewing room. Yesterday I had used a wipe and then was beginning to use a new can of basting spray. Light-bulb moment, wipe the nozzle before use and no gummy buildup.

I store the cans upside down after I use it and I also turn the can upside down and spray it in the wastebasket to get the propelling gas after using it on the quilt backing. Only a small amount comes out and then it won't escape if you put the can in a glass (with the lid on) and then shake it very well when you are ready to spray it on the next quilt batting.

I had a can that just stopped spraying half way through. Did the warm water soak of the nozzle. Nothing worked, but can was half full. Sent an email to the customer service email on the can (in the fine print). Got a quick response from them that they had had some defective nozzles, and they sent me a new can in the mail. Was happy with that service. I love 505.
I shop around for prices, but find the larger cans priced well at Amazon, Overstock-com and Walmart-com.
