Safe to reuse spray bottles?

[S4Dallas]

So I had two empty bottles. One GG wheel cleaner and one GG window cleaner.

I washed each out for a good 5 minutes with hot water and soap.

Do you think they are clean enough and safe to reuse as spray bottles for my quick detail spray?

So long as you get all the wheel cleaner out of the feed tube.

I sprayed wated through for a good 2-3 minutes non-stop.

depending on the bottle, I re-use them after it's been cleaned thoroughly. i like the plain bottle look so i will take any labels off carefully if possible...

i do it with my all purpose cleaner bottles i get. I used to toss em out but ive stockpiled quite a few now so I just kept them. good sprayer on em and a good 16oz bottle for most stuff!

I reuse the bottles as well. Running a very dilute APC then IPA through them and let dry.

My favorite bottle to reuse are the Febreeze ones. The sprayer is a fine mist and works great for clay lube.

I was going to say to remove the labels so that in a moment of distraction, you don't accidentally put wheel acid on windows or something like that.

Label them at trigger top ^^

Just remember to have all of the required and
necessary "product-data-sheets" readily available,
if you're detailing as a Business entity.

To paraphrase:

Depending on what was in the bottle before, and what is going in after, I will rinse my bottles with Kleen-Strip. Then soak in water for a few minutes before rinsing and refilling. Call me crazy, but the last thing I need is some spray wax residue or something along those lines mixed with a concentrated APC, wheel cleaner, etc.

If need be I put a sticker on the bottom of the bottle (ex:AW - aquawax / D101 - Megs APC, etc.) but all my bottles are separated so I know which are which...
