    Can't Find A Decent Spray Bottle Trigger

    I have a bunch of these 36 oz spray bottles, which are great because of the marked dilution ratios on them. I am having a hard time finding a decent spray nozzle/trigger for them. The ones they came with are flimsy, and don't spray well. I even got my finger caught in the gap between the trigger and body.

    36 Ounce Detail Bottle

    I had the older version of the Griots Garage, which I used for these bottles and they work well, but they have worn out, so I am in need of new ones. I tried the newer version that AG sells, however they aren't that good either. They too feel flimsy, the trigger action isn't good, and it doesn't spray/atomize the fluid well.



    Can anyone recommend a good trigger I can use with these bottles that have the following?
    -Durable
    -Solid Trigger Feel/Action
    -Good Atomization
    -High Volume

    If there are no decent triggers for these bottles anymore, I would be open to trying a different bottle all together.

    tolco chemical resistant sprayer is pretty much a staple. i've tried many many sprayers and the tolco have held up. using some calmac sprayers right now to see how long they last.

    my DI water system is still holding up great by the way!

    Honestly imo the standard griots red/white trigger that comes with their 22oz products has been my all time favorite and I still save mines until this day. I believe they are exclusive to griots products, but they make them reusable unlike quite a few products out there that purposely put a lock so when you try to reuse it breaks the trigger. Something about the brand Griots and being Ergonomic, I feel thats one of the traits of Griots from triggers to poolishers! Even with their polishes the cap is very useful.

    Other than that, the autogeek chemical resistant gray ones have been pretty ergonomic.

    Don, that is great to hear your DI system is still holding up! I will have to check out the tolco! Also, someone sent me a link about re-charging DI-Resin. I still have some research to do on it, but it might be something you want to check out as well!

    I am also a huge fan of these bottles with the dilution ratio. Makes life easy when your on the move and you got to mix some stuff.

    If you still have the Griots sprayers, last time I talked to their customer service they said if you send in the ones that don't work they'll warranty them and send new ones.
