Marolex sprayers

[Sizzle Chest]

An absolute waste of money. Where it belongs now. Crazy for a $60.00+ sprayer. No help from the company either, other than sending me a new suction hose that wasn't the issue... Complete piece of shite.












Yes, there is an IK sprayer in there as well. At least that one worked for a little while before failing.

I need to source some quality sprayers that will last. Need them for wheel cleaner, tire&rubber cleaner, APC, and Iron remover. Open to suggestions.

Will upload pics when I can, site didn't like the 'S' word in my Smugmug file description. LOL

The older I get the more often that happens

I just don't have the time or tolerance for trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear like I did in my youth when $$$ was in very short supply

The frustration isn't worth it

For the record, my IK 2 Pro whatever is ok, but not life changing and certainly not worth what I paid for it

Just curious, how are they failing?

Spray pattern goes to heck, keeps spraying without trigger pulled, etc?

Just trying to work out what might be failing in them to help set up for success with a replacement.

Damn, i was gonna look at getting a merolex, thanks for the info.

I have 2 ik 1.5 multi's and the one that runs the iron remover has after a year started to fail...trigger sticks and what not. The other that runs my 3d yellow degreaser mix has the pumper handle starting to feel like its gummed up or something.

Hard to find a product that is build to last. We live in a disposable world

Pick up tube kept falling off. Even tried a hose clamp/tie wrap/etc to hold on, even a new rubber small diameter heater hose. Would not hold psi, kept leaking out-mainly from the handle/pumper area.

Thank you!

Thanks for posting. Mine have been holding up just fine.

We live in a disposable world

It's called "Planned Obsolescence". And it is the business model for most (if not all) companies today.

There is less profit in selling you a washing machine that works for more than 4-5 years, and less profit for making a plastic sprayer that lasts more than 6 months.
These companies don't even have to care about "Standing behind their names" any longer.

There are no "Names".

Just crap products with crap engineering made the cheapest way possible.

And we gladly buy it every day, because they have eliminated our other options.
