Abstract

A dispensing assembly including an internally pressurized container of viscous liquid which may be dispensed through a hollow stem by deflecting the directing tube and stem to open a valve and cause liquid to flow out through an outlet opening in the directing tube. An overcap having a cavity adapted to receive the stem and directing tube releasably engages the container and has at least one, and preferably two, sockets along its inner surface for storing elongate hollow tapered application nozzles. The application nozzles have inlet ends adapted for engagement around the outlet opening on the directing tube so that the nozzles can be used to apply the liquid as it is discharged from the container.
