Title: Pour spout lids for Swiss powder containers (plastic)?
Post by: Justin on August 26, 2019, 05:49:29 AM: Does anyone know where to find pour spout lids for plastic Swiss powder containers?

I have some plastic lids that fit Goex but the mouth on the Swiss containers is smaller.

Thanks! I just ordered a couple along with some other stuff. I'm sure someone has done research that says if you make your shipping cost high, people buy more at one time to make the shipping cost less of the total... lol

Yeah, I always bought them when I had a big order. I never noticed the shipping charge. It didn't seem like much.

There are so many discussions here about "secret formula" lubes, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a Crest Fluoride lube. Non petroleum and it "seasons" the barrel against cavities.
