had a job before knee op where custard saved a 1/2 days labour by ripping out old cyl for me to pop in new uv cyl. Not a problem, just upped my daily rate to cover loss, he was happy and I spent 1/2 a day less on my knees!!! oh life can be so good

You buy the holder which is a pen type thing and a pack of these rope type things which go in the pen. You light em with a lighter/ blowtorch/ on the hob, and then blow the flame out so they just smoke, last for as long as you want, 1 stick lasts for ages, when you have finished your spillage test you extinguish the cartridge completely and it is ready to be re-used next time. They are a little pricey but WELL worth the money IMHO. Don't think I'll ever use a match again.
