Re: errrr.......help?
Getting it off is your problem
 In future, try wiping the excess off the tip with some paper towel before putting the cap on - you'd be surprised what a difference it makes.

Re: errrr.......help?
My LHS has their own 'brand' of CAs (They buy this stuff called Insta-Cure and there is a spot for their sticker on the bottle), and they sell extra needle-points and caps. I just buy an extra one, don't snip the tip off, and put it on after I'm done with using that bottle for the day. Soaking the old one in acetone will get rid of the old CA.

Re: errrr.......help?
I always leave the cap off, in fact I throw it away and leave it leaning standing up against something on my bench. Never have a problem with it drying up although it does thicken up over the course of a month or so.
Mike.
