Portal 2 Hints
How can I use the gel tube to portal-enable the chamber?
1 of 5: The same way you redirected other types of gel in other test chambers to where you wanted it to go.
2 of 5: Put an orange portal on the floor where the gel flow hits it, then put a blue portal somewhere else on the starting gel splotch.
3 of 5: That'll get gel to shoot up out of the blue portal and paint a new area.
4 of 5: Relocate the blue portal to a spot on the new area so that gel gets spewed all over another area, and so on.
5 of 5: If you take your time here, you can white-wash most of the chamber before you even start looking for a way to leave.
