    We had a car come into our dealership last year because it was making a "funny noise" . When the mechanic opened the hood, he found a kitten curled up on the intake. Noise found and repaired!

    Just a thought but you may want to open the container of paint and place it in a sealed container alongside some Damp Rid. The Damp Rid may pull the moisture out for you. Again, just a thought.

    Bid on a Glock 23 Gen 2 but the price was too high so I walked away. Stopped by my LGS and they had a used 23c Gen 3 for 50 bucks less. Couldn't walk away from that deal.

    I used white Airsoft BB's. Of course I had to buy a bazillion of them but they worked just fine. I swirl them around in the bowl for about a minute before adding the powder and bullets.

    Did you add some Airsoft BB's to the mix? That seems to be the trick to creating static electricity. I tried PC last week for the first time and got really good results.
