Do you all lube your o-rings and threads before long term storage?

A bigger answer.

After testing a tank I take it apart and give it a thorough cleaning then put it together loosely. If the orings are going to be trashed in 10 years I will just put new ones in.

Most of the stash tanks haven't been opened so they still have the factory gunk on them.

@ChelsB - I have several similar drip tip covers, but they're different than yours....only 1 ring around the tank and smaller IMO. I bought mine because I take my mod & tank out to my barn when I clean stalls, out to mow my pastures, etc. and I wanted to keep shavings, sawdust, hay bits, and grass stuff out of my tanks. I've never used them indoors though.

I recommended them to several other members who work in factories or plants of some kind, where lots of dust, sand, etc. is in the air. They both posted that they really liked them because now they can keep all that stuff out of their tanks!

I found hay in my Kabuki drip tip, and my Radius had ground in dirt. I had forgotten about these!

Talk about a dumb purchase. I bought these a while ago from FT and just put them on. Don't know what I was thinking !

You made me laugh so hard that my side hurt! And, every time someone quoted you, I saw the picture again and couldn't stop laughing.

I think I'll pass.
