Normal? Que? How often is this happening? What percentage of the 
stuff are you wasting in clearing bubbles? And couldn't you pump into 
separate containers while clearing the lines so you could decant each 
component back into its reservoir?

Do you know how the bubbles get there? Is it because the feed 
container level gets too low and air bubbles are sucked in? Or is the 
hardener more liable to develop bubbles when pouring, which then 
refuse to float out?

And how big a bubble are we talking about? Does it fill the 
cross-section of the delivery pipe, for instance?

Thanks for any answers you can offer.

regards

Rowland
