STEP 1 – HYDRATE YOUR STARFIRE GELLETS® !! IMPORTANT !!
Starfire Glow in the Dark Gellets® must be submerged in water for at least four hours to fully expand to size. They also need to have plenty of water to absorb (this is very important) – you’ll know there was plenty of water if after four hours the Gellets are still submerged in water. Failing to completely hydrate Gellets will cause your Gel Blaster® to seem crappy.
Starfire™ Glow in the Dark Gellets are specially formulated and behave differently. These Gellets, when fully hydrated, may shrink and lose their ability to glow within a few days, so only hydrate what you plan on using!

FAQ & QUICK FIXES
Q: My hopper & feedback keep sliding off and won’t feed the Gellets into my
Gel Blaster.
A: Please make sure your hopper is facing the right direction – the front
arrow (on your feedback) should be facing toward your fins. If installed
correctly, the hopper and feedback will click & lock in place.
Q: My Gellets aren’t shooting correctly and are rolling out of my Gel
Blaster’s barrel.
A: This is caused by Gellets that aren’t full-size. To make sure your
Gellets are fully hydrated, please allow your Gellets to be submerged in water
for a minimum of 4 hrs before playing.
Q: My Gel Blaster® seems jammed.
A: Your Gel Blaster® will rarely get jammed, but if this is the case,
please make sure to turn the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position. Now proceed to
check the tip and barrel of the Gel Blaster. If debris is found in your Gel
Blaster, remove your hopper & feedback and spray canned air directly into the
barrel forcing the debris to come out of the tip of the blaster. If the debris
is still stuck, use a pipe cleaner to force the remainder out of the tip of
the blaster. Never push the debris from the tip/front of the Gel Blaster
toward the back, that will only jam your Gel Blaster worse.
