: I used to think that dirty tips was the cause of my clogging but now
: that I strain my paste through pantyhose I realize it was just lumps
: in the paste. I use only .5mm tips and don't clean them very well

Me too!!! I've been pantyhose sifting and no more clogs. Much better
for my wrist not having to squeeze and push those particles out all
the time.
I keep my tips in a small tupperware container with lots of soap and
water. i just shake them clean and that's where they live. It's been
months and they don't rust or anything. Nice and fresh when I need
another tip. I use sewing needles and pins to clean out any residue.
The straight pins with colored balls on the ends are great to sit in
the tips when you're not using it (during a break, etc.) they
prevent paste from drying in the tip.
