Guacamole Gun Goop

Does anyone have any really good recipes for the goop that goes into a guacamole gun? I can’t get it thick enough to stick to my actors and thin enough to not come out in one giant clump. Any help at all would be appreciated.

to great effect in the short film 'Broken'.

Alex mentions on his dvd that they used things like corn flakes and to foo for brains and the blood they were using was corn syrup based. He also said you should try diffirent lengths of barrel for diffirent effects.
