Gallon Jug Pouring Issues

[Jlt23]

Thanks!!! That will work great. I would check KC's website every couple of months to see if they made something and didn't think to check elsewhere.

I haven’t tried them yet, but I ran across them so I can’t speak if they work well.

Thanks for this suggestion, hadn't heard of it before. I was just searching the web and found Chemical Guys sells these on Amazon. 3 pack for $2.75 is worth trying out. https://www.amazon.com/Chemical-Guys-ACC_111-Gallon-Size-Spout/dp/B00BCH4S9Y?gQT=1

Several of the lower star reviews say they leak. These are not the same caps as the US Plastics caps. Must be from a different manufacturer.
The US Plastics caps don't leak.

I have some testing to do.

With the spout being on top shouldn’t be an issue unless leaving on sides.

The yellow spout at the far right (picture above) was advertised for use with a washer fluid bottle (same thread/size as gallon bottles) so I tried it out. Works well and does not leak even if I held the bottle upside down.

I do not think it's the right one to dispense detailing products though. Nozzle is too short and also too large a diameter compared to the Griot's version. We'll see. It's still early in the year here but I anticipate trying the others in the next month or so.

Tested out the long thin spout yesterday. DO NOT RECOMMEND for pouring gallon jugs into spray bottles. Lots of 'glugging' because it doesn't have a vent, except for through the pour nozzle which is fairly narrow. Just an awkward experience. This one is likely best for pouring an additive into a fuel tank where you need the long skinny nozzle. That said... no leaking from the threads so that's a positive.

Next up will be the Chemical Guys spouts, followed by the Griot's (intentionally leaving for last as I assume they are the best).

Try the caps in post #1. They are extremely inexpensive and they work pretty good. You could probably get 10 of them for the cost of 1 of the other style.
Good for pouring out small quanities. I mostly use them for rinseless wash mixing and i have one on a gallon jug of spray wax which works well.
