How do I use it?
It might seem a bit tricky, but once you get the hang of it, it's a really neat little tool!
First, begin with a tube where you've already used up some of the product inside. If the tube is too full, inserting the squeeze key can cause the tube to crack - so there needs to be some space so that you can flatten the top of the tube for easy insertion.
Gently slide the squeeze key onto the top of the tube.
Then slowly turn the handle of your squeeze key like if you're turning a key in a lock, rolling the squeeze key as you dispense however much product you'd like.
Once you get to the bottom of the tube, remove the squeeze key and unscrew the cap from the tube. Rinse out the cap, and recycle in regular plastic recycling, and leave the aluminum tube for aluminum recycling.
How do I stop my aluminum tube from cracking?
Alu tubes are generally a bit more sensitive than for example plastic tubes, so dispensing the product evenly without bending the tube repeatedly in various places really helps.
Using a squeeze key helps to maintain the integrity of the tube while making it much easier to dispense product with precision. It also help to make sure you don't miss out on any leftover product in the tube, as it helps to squeeze the tube empty before recycling!
Do I need to buy a squeeze key for every tube I have?
The squeeze key is made to fit most tube sizes, so unless you have a very unusually sized tube, the squeeze key fits most tubes!
I have a weak grip and/or arthritis. Will this work for me?
Compared to the difficulty in squeezing a regular tube, using a squeeze key is oftentimes easier for people with hand mobility/strength concerns, as it can act as a lever, making it easier to dispense product with less effort and more precision.
Once the squeeze key is slid onto the top of the tube, you can leave it there until the tube is empty, making the dispensing of the product easier all throughout!
