Each time you slosh the tank, you have to blow into the outlet pipe to
blow the sealer out of the pipe (and in your case, off of the filter mesh).
You can never leave the tank unattended in the upright position during
the drying cycle, or the outlet pipe will be clogged.
I did this when I did the tanks on my Europa S2, or the outlet pipe surely
would have clogged up. Be sure to avoid inhaling around this project, as
the solvent (was MEK in the Kreem I used) is evil stuff.
