First day using Bilt Hamber touchless.

**PouncingPanzer** · 01-09-2024, 05:00 AM

Noticed brown oooze under the bench top I store stuff on apparently, at some point, the seam in the bottom of my Touchless jug started seeping....must've been for a while because I had a Touchless stalagmite starting below. I should've worn gloves cleaning it up skin was a little tingly afterwards. Lol.

I've had various gallon-size containers leak over the years. Always pleasant.

I checked it again today with cleaning up yesterday easier to spot the origin point. I am now storing the container upside down and plan to seal with caulk or something.

I had a gallon of rags to riches leak. It was stored with my laundry detergent. Soaked the powdered detergent I had and made a huge mess. I bought this for the cabinet where it's stored to at least contain any future leaks.

Yea I should probably line the shelf with something that has a lip on it. Good call. I used some tough white caulk I had that gets very hard. Should hold up. Or not lol. Touchless gets super waxy and sticky when it evaporates some. Like honey.

Good luck, I'd look for a different bottle if I were you, I give pretty low chances for success fixing that one.

I bought a box of plastic trays from Amazon that I keep all my gallons and things like drain cleaner and bleach on; as you gents have noted, too many instances of these kind of things leaking, especially with aggressive chemicals.

I just ordered more Touchless. Looking forward to using it sometime next week after this next storm comes through LOL.

Foam it with my IK Pro12 or Marolex Sprayer......decisions.

I'm such a dunce. Just finished a complete wash and sitting here looking at my phone, looks like another storm tomorrow ....

CI. Do you prefer Touchless or AF or just Touchless since no HP needed.
I have both - haven't used either yet,

I haven't tried AF so I can't really say. It seems that both work very well, and some get better results with one or the other depending on the type of dirt buildup.
