    Tolco sprayers are generally good but they do have a weakness ... the "neck" area where they screw on to the spray bottle can break if you're not careful.

    What has worked for me is that I rinse out the sprayer with water before I put the bottle back on the shelf. This way, the caustic chemicals really don't settle into the sprayer components at all. I've gone from maybe a year of durability to "years". ;-)

    Re: Any Chemical Sprayers that don't suck?

    It’s funny because a couple weeks ago I replaced the meguiars bottles I had. About 2 years and they’re all creaking and don’t spray evenly anymore. I bought these to hopefully improve and I’m “in the zone” spraying and wiping and a trigger just falls off, then, all of them dribble a bunch of chemical out.

    5 min after I post this photo to Instagram someone comments “I bought one of those a while back and it failed the next day” so I angrily finish the detail having a bunch of these get in the way of me and a good experiance.

    Might just have to get the overpriced ones from obsessed garage or get Zep bleach bottles. Those almost never fail.
