Can a flexible hose be used on the nozzle for filling a horizontal crack or can you turn the can up?

I tried using the plastic tip/tube on the end and it drastically reduced the flow. Although it still did come out just at about 5-10% the normal speed with the trigger/set srcrew set to the max. So my answer is it kinda/sorta works. Hope this helps.

I'm confident one could put a flexible hose on the nozzle, but I think you will find these foam guns work quite well in a wide range of orientations. Just SURE to take the hose off immediately after use. You dont want that setting up and be in the same predicament as the disposable cans. The 'pro-guns' are becoming widely available, I just saw a fairly nice one at Home Depot...but this one is fine too. I've had is for 6 months and ran about 4 cans of foam through it...everything from rodent sealing to fire safing.

For the the product to dispense the can has to be upside down. The only tricky maneuver is overhead. You should be able to use a hose for that.

Typically 2 years is too long. Shake very well. However top of can must be screw type and not straw nozzle. You state hose is 1/4", however, this gun uses screw type foam dispensers.

I guess you could drill a hole and run an appropriate line under it but you could damage the product. Besides I kind of like the gel , it crackles and appears realistic.

You likely could extend the hose, however the pump inside the sprayer was probably not designed to draw liquid much beyond the length of the provided hose. You're probably further ahead buying or renting a unit where the reservoir and pump are at one end of the hose and the spray nozzle is at the other. An example on Amazon is: http://www.amazon.com/Graco-Magnum-262805-Airless-Sprayer/dp/B0026SSW8G/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1408148058&sr=8-2-fkmr2&keywords=graco+paint+sprayer+medium+duty

Yes. The hose is flexible enough to wrap around. I have it attached to the rail of my deck with 1-90 degree bend in the hose. I do recommend going with this model as we originally purchased the model with the plastic nozzles and they failed after only one season in the sun.

Not really. The nozzles are not meant for that type of precise work and the pressure would be too high and vary so much as to make control tough. An airbrush is the way to go for you.

It can. They suggest level with the inlet so when the barrel is full it overflows into the hose and out of the gutter instead of out of the top of your barrel. Above within an inch or two, and as long as it is not so far above the inlet to the barrel that it pinches the hose is fine.

Depressing the foot pedal operates the power to wind up the hose and yes you could press it with something other than your foot. I would suggest a Cain with a rubber bottom.

Since it is plastic, a plastic cement similar to plastic models could be used as a permanent fix. For a temporary fix if it's just loose on the nozzle, you could wrap duck tape (yeah the cure-all) around the nozzle to make the fit tighter. Two sided tape could be used as well.

It has a swivel-barb fitting adapter that let you connect 1/2" I.D. flexible high pressure hose to it with a clamp. You are not supposed use rigid connection to it.

Set the can on the ground and slowly open the valve to release pressure. Then Use

It's fairly flexible. It's a medium soft rubber. Might be a little big to wrap around a pipe of that size with it wrapping on itself. Maybe lengthwise it would work

Yes you will have to remove all plumbing to the top valve mechanism in order to remove it. Otherwise you won't be able to access the opening to get to the sand. I used rigid 2inch PVC pipes for all my plumbing with line break valves for when I do need to open it up but I suppose flexible will work as long as the connections are correct.

you don't. I used a pool type flex hose and clamp. The hose is bad; their hose is too short and drains on your feet. Easy to fix with a 5 foot length of pool hose.

easily.. this is the best hose i have ever owned, more flexible than a standard hose.

you can lay under a car with the can horizontal and spray it UP, it works just fine, just remember to get at least 3 cans that is the amount i use for the back wheel wells of my truck

I just blew it up the old fashioned way blowing into the various fill nozzles. However little handpump for like a yoga ball or inflatable mattress would definitely make the job easier.
