No, You're not. Here comes the lecture. :-) Not really. :-) But I have developed a certain routine (IE. set of compulsory behaviours). When shopping for a new can, I check on how much the valve spits. If it's bad, I pass and look for a different product. There are some brands with specialised nozzles that claim to be much better than anything else, but they cost thrice as much and are, as far as I have been able to make out, not significantly better. My behaviour has contracted a few disapproving looks in the shops, but there you go... :-) When cleaning the sensor, I always move the camera about, and keep the can as still as possible. Shaking the can inevitably cause a bit of spitting with most brands...
