Really?!?!  I haven't done enough of them to know, but the one I am
working on took a 2oz bottle in a VERY small section.  That's why I
ordered the 8oz bottle.  Probably not the thing I will regularly run into,
I guess...?

Yes, you are right.  I should only use large bottles for jobs like this
one.  From now on, I'll probably just get the 2oz bottles, unless I know
in advance I will need much more.  ;)
