    Improving all your spray bottles

    I found something I will be doing to all my spray bottles next week:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZU6YJ-1AJYU

    It resolves the issue of spraying when the liquid is low in the bottle.

    Anybody else using this?

    Careful putting metal nuts in a bottle of Meguiar's Wheel Brightener or other non-Ph neutral products.

    Kwazar sells a 360 version of their double-action sprayer and there are sprayer available that will spray in any orientation; including inverted.

    Neither "up-side down trigger sprayer" ($1.99) or "Kwazar 360" ($14.99)are available on AGO yet though.

    Re: Improving all your spray bottles

    Ya I have been thinking about this all day, because of the comment at the end (until your weights rust out)...

    So I was thinking about using something like a heavy piece of plastic instead. Something like PVP piping. I would glue it to the tube instead of using steel nuts. The other alternative would be to use some other metal (brass maybe).

    Anyways this will work great for any PH Neutral product. Just need to find something that will work as well for Acidic and Basic products.

    Liked the tip very much, as well as other people concerns regarding which material to use. Thanks for that.

    Hopefully AGO will add this to their line-up of Kwazar Sprayers

    "Mercury Super Pro 360 sprayers are designed for application of chemicals in small areas. They are equipped with unique double-action trigger head which provides constant, fine spray with half the effort. However, 360 degrees spraying system allows the application of liquid regardless of the sprayer position. Thanks to this solution Mercury Super Pro360 is more efficient. The pump sprayer is ended with adjustable nozzle, through which one can easily adjust the desired degree of atomization of liquid into a continuous stream. Another advantage is durable tank marked with a bar scale and indicator of liquid level. Sprayer is equipped with a viton seals.



    Sprayers Mercury Pro + is characterized by increased resistance to acidic and alkaline preparations."

    Re: Improving all your spray bottles

    I never purchased any Kwazar sprayer because they are insanelly expensive. Don't remember the exact prices but they were something like 5 times what I pay for my spray botttles.

    I am thinking about buying pressure sprayers though... again very expensive but for some tasks I think it would be Worth it (like spraying APC when doing interior shampoos or degreaser when doing engine compartments).

    They have something like this on the bottom of garden pump bottles. Its this metal coil that moves to wherever the water is in the bottle.
