several things shift epoxy
That eats nitrile, though, which is possibly the most likely seal material. See the link I posted earlier.
So oddly enough I have now got most of it off with WD40 and a scourer !!! It is now at least vaguely working. Thanks all for your suggey
Sorry not sure what happened there. That should have said thanks all for your suggestions
If it's just stuck in a thick hard layer to the outside of the needle try tapping it with a hammer (resting on something hard and heavy like a bench vice). Or nipping it with some good pliers. I had a "hardly used" eBay bargain spray gun that was thoroughly gummed with very hard varnish, and it just came away cleanly in a few pieces. If it's on the /inside/ of anything try noxious chemicals or heat.
No problem. Sometimes mechanical is best.
