Default Tip: Re-use those Gift Cards

All those plastic gift cards you got for Christmas, or in the mail trying to get you to sign up for credit cards; can be used as a squeegee to spread glue, fiberglass resin, filler etc.

The free, flexible and can be cut to make custom shapes

Harold,

Whenever I travel, I ask the hotel clerk if they have any old "key cards" I might have. I have never failed to walk away without a handful.

They do work great, as you noted.
