How to form a 90 degree bend in a WD-40 spray tube

How to form a 90 degree bend in a WD-40 spray tube.
Take the tube off of the WD-40 nozzle.
Clear the tube of any remaining WD-40 and wipe with a towel
Straighten a small paper clip and leave a bend to help manipulate it with your fingers.
Insert 2 inches of the paper clip inside the tube.
Bend the tube and the paper clip 90 degrees at one inch from the
tip of the tube.
Use a flame from a lighter and wave the flame back and forth lightly under the
90 degree bend for 10 seconds. (the tube should be just warm to the touch)
Let the tube cool for a couple of minutes.
Pull the paperclip out with pliers.
Place the long end of the tube back in the WD-40 nozzle.
Now you can turn the tube at the bend to the desired angle while spraying with
the can of WD-40 in the upright position.
Helps save on propellant as well.
