      Probably. If you can apply it reasonably, then keep using it until it's 
gone. 

      One of the biggest problems with ScotchKote is that once you've opened 
it and slopped some goop on the jar threads, it's very difficult to open the 
can again. The best thing to do is to put some Vaseline petroleum jelly on 
the top threads and the can threads. It'll open again with a minimum of fuss. 
Remember you heard it first here on TowerTalk!
