Mike,
Being a pharmacist I have access to syringes and needles from
all major manufacturers and have found no difference. The plungers go bad
in all of them. In the day when I spent a lot of time building I would
replace them about once weekly. (0 cost to me) Once the plunger starts
sticking you have no control. Now that I'm not building as much I am using
the applicator bottles similar to those from A2Z.
