I've quit using Pam vegetable spray. After tossing several non-empty cans
because of spray nozzle clogging, I finally quit wasting my money. Awhile

excellent. I've had the can (large) for 4 months and the nozzle still works
good as new. Highly recommended.

I use a Misto. It has a pump on the top which you use to pump air into
the bottle. Be careful not to fill it more than two-thirds of the way
full so there's room for the air.

You can fill it with the oil of your choice (I actually have one for
olive oil and one for canola oil). No additives, refillable, much
cheaper than Pam.

I just use an inexpensive plastic spray bottle intended for misting plants.
I have one with olive oil and one with canola oil. The spray isn't as fine
as the aerosol cans, but it is nearly as good at a fraction of the price.

I use it as well, and also the store brands. Never had a problem.

My attempts to use the misto has always resulted in clogging of the
spray nozzle. All efforts to clean the nozzle have failed. What do you
do???
Thanks

Soak the nozzle in very hot, soapy water for a few minutes. Put some
of the water into the misto, pump it up, and spray it. Then rinse. That
always works for me.

Just like a can of spray paint hold it upside down and press the button.
What ambient temperature are you storing your PAM at?

Never had that problem with Pam or any other release spray, but when
it happens with my hair spray, giving the spritzer thingie a quick run
under hot water and reeming around in the spritz hole with a safety
pin clears it right up. ;-) It's great being a girl!

Thanks for the tip, however:
I have that exact problem with Bakers Joy and there are no substitutions
that I can
find. Cleaning the nozzle doesn't work. I'd hate to go back to greasing and
flouring.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Roberta

I have the same, but one for regular and one for extra virgin olive
oil. I bought one for my daughter as well and although she thought
it was nothing more than a gadget, she has come to reply on it now in
the kitchen and uses it every day. Same with a friend who came to
visit and bought one before returning to France.

Knowing canola, I tend to think it would clog the tube a lot faster
than olive oil. After all, in WWII, it was used to lubricate ship
engines :-)

I had this problem once with spray starch, and found to my surprise that
there was this red dot on the rim of the can that the nozzle had to be
lined up with in order to work properly. Once I lined them up, I had no
problem. Don't know if that will work with your Baker's Joy, but it's
worth a look-see.

The most important thing I've found is to be sure not to fill the bottle
up too much - you need to leave plenty of room to pump air into. I found
when I overfilled the bottle, it would spray as if it was clogged, but
when the bottle was less than two thirds full, it worked fine.

I always get the store brand. Half the price & exactly the same.
