RTV sealant tube presser

Anyone know where i can get an RTV sealant tube presser tool? I'm about fed up with doing it by hand. From the cramping fingers to the sealant oozing out when you squeeze it too hard, it's just too much of a hassle.

If you don't know what i'm talking about, it's one of the special tools listed on page 4 of the Engine Mechanical PDF in the FSM. Thanks in advance guys.

Might be easier to buy RTV in the can. It comes out of the tip like cheese whiz.

You're welcome. We use it where I work and it is a lot easier to use. You can make a more consistent bead with it.
