Mine doesn't seem to drip that I know of - but then I do keep an old
mixing cup uder the nozzles just in case. It's about half-full now of
the waste strokes I've had to make to clear the hardener delivery
pipe, which seems to be prone to blockage if left idle for any length
of time. Ditto the valve in the bottom of the hardener reservoir. For
the price, you'd think they could make all the steel parts stainless
and avoid these slight corrosion effects.
