    cross my heart the new elmers aint thins.
    they look excatly like boston thins, those r on stoner glass cleaner.

    boston thins r good for little flairs an the new elmers r jus a bigger ass version
    of that cap basically.

    thats the only reason i threw out that"boston fat" title

    Anyone who uses Rusto and hasn't tried making the stems on caps fatter needs to try it. I just used a yellow superfat on some rusto and it's awesome, ny fats are also really nice to be able to use.

    I heated up the sharp side of a compass(like for drawing circles) with a lighter and pushed it in the stem and turned it around. It works really well, you just need to make sure you don't puch too hard or you'll make a hole in the top of the cap.

    I acquired some rustos today, the 33 percent more big cans, and NY fats and pink dots work on them... I thought only rusto fats worked, I'm so pumped.

    pink dots only work for a lil while... it shud start flooding soon. u can widen the stem tho then it'll be good. same with ny fats

    to my knowledge this is all that works as it coems on rusto:
    beige dots
    rusto fats
    stock tips
    banana skinnys
    red skinnys
    ny thins
    thats all i know

    haha ive never used ny fats on a rusto myself, but my friend says they die aswell.

    just look around for something metal, liek a nail that fits well inside the stem. then heat up the tip of the nail wiht a lighter, and stikc it in and wiggle it around and twist it until its wide enough, just take a rusto fat and make the stem a lil iwder than that

    I never really used ny fats before, or at least not enough to appreciate them, but with the modded widened stems on rusto they are butter. They're awesome if you want a slow cap thats pretty fat.

    lol the answer is right on this page. check out stoner glass cleaner, it's called "invisible glass" and it's for cars. It's in one of the paint aisles at my lowes, this link also has some other places they sell it http://www.invisibleglass.com/RetailPartners.htm. The caps on them are boston (rusto) thins and they are hands down the best thins for rusto because they don't stutter like other thins on rusto, they actually start spraying when you press down, like a thin is supposed to. (BTW thanks to planetaryduality for telling me about what cans find them on)

    You can also find ny thins on some cans, but the only product with them that I can think of right now is Testors mini spray paint cans, they sell them at Michael's, they're for models and stuff so look in that area. The tops are shitty to get off tho, they have like a paper wrapper around them so you either need long fingernails or a knife to take them off.

    oh yeah and you can get a type of blaster cap off spray goof-off, but I think they spray a little thinner than the artpr!mo ones, but I'm sure you could widen them with an x-acto or something.

    to add to this list

    blaster caps
    boston (rusto) thins
    boston (rusto fats (the caps that come on elmers craft adhesive, I don't know the real name, but they look just like the boston thins so...)
