The top of the stopper should be flush with the lip of the bottle.

Start off with warm soapy water filled about half way. Put your thumb over the opening and give it a shake. Rinse and repeat a few times. If the stuff is stubborn fill it to the top with bleach, use a funnel to keep it off the label. Just let it sit a day or three and pour it out with the label facing up. _____________________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dc86_Weoye0 ya never come back (in reply to bottlemax) Post #: 5
