What is everyone's opinion on the most ergonomic trigger spray for quart spray bottles? I like the generic Tolco sprayers for their durability, but my goodness detailing all day with those takes a toll on the hands.
 
Tolco makes some good sprayers....they also make some cheap sprayers....

I Use Zep high output sprayers

Sounds like you need to try out a pump sprayer. I like the Kwazar 1.5L
 
I had bad luck with some Zep sprayers last spring and returned them

I didn’t notice when I bought them that the sprayer was completely different than some older Zep bottles I had in storage

The new ones had horrible spray patterns

I wish I could locate Tolco gray sprayers locally but haven’t yet

Coincidentally I happened to pick these up yesterday for some high PH APCs I am going to try as road film pretreat

The neck of the sprayer and the bottle attachment are different than their standard sprayers

Supposedly bleach proof so I hope that means maybe longer lasting with other harsh chemicals

Fingers crossed

I used the 2 new Zep Bleach Resistant sprayers quite a bit yesterday and I can’t speak about longevity or chemical resistance but as far as just using them I am quite pleased

The nozzles were adjustable from a very fine spray to just flooding product and the shorter and squatty bottle don’t tip over like the taller bottles

From left to right here is the old style Zep sprayer which have lasted a long time, the newer style which have been hit and miss for me as far as adjustability of the sprayer, and the newest “bleach resistant” sprayers

The ergonomics of the trigger make ZERO difference to me, for me its the quality , spray patterns and most of all the longevity of the sprayer. And as of today, I have not found even one that lasts mare than a dozen or two uses for me. I refuse to flush the trigger assy. after every use. I dont believe that the diversity of my chemical uses are way out there either.

Absolutely on all the above

Many times my reclaimed sprayers from household cleaning supplies outlast dedicated "detailing" sprayers many times over

The reclaimed sprayers from chemicals that I have purchased in stores have done way better than new self proclaimed " chemical" sprayers
 
I spent a leisurely 5 minutes the other evening peeling the label off a bottle of Griots interior detailing spray so I could repurpose it for P&S Express

I love that the label came off with no residue as long as I took my time

I had my Express in a tall Zep bottle and I hate 32oz bottles for interior stuff

I poured the last 8-10 oz of the Griots stuff down the sink so I could reuse the bottle

Not my cup of tea

I have a few of the popular ones and love theses the best. I recently switched all my bottles to the misting. They use 1/3 the product. Make it allot easier to apply since you just pump a few times and they mist automatically. Just the perfect amount for exterior and interior LSP. Lastly they just are the right size to hold. If anyone decides to try them, make sure to shop. Don't pay more than $5 each on Amazon.

I know spending 5 min is probably easier than trying to get anything shipped to Alaska but Griot's does sell empty unlabeled bottles. And I've found their sprayers (compact and compact foaming) elsewhere.

CarPro also sells there empty chemical bottles

I have a couple of those-- but i dont use them with detailing chemicals or my pesticides. They certainly do put out a SUPER FINE mist

What can I say, I am easily amused...

And cheap, did I mention I am cheap?

lol

I went on their website, put 5 bottles and 5 sprayers in the cart, and this is what I get

Pay particular attention to the dialogue box at the bottom

This is the reason I never tried Griots products until some of them became available in stores

There are so many places you guys can shop and get free or reduced shipping rates but Alaska isn’t one of them

Yes, I choose to live where I live and I have to deal with the limitations in services etc

It is what it is

They've proved the test of time with anything other than the heavy chemicals. I use the Merolex or IK on those. I even pack one in the car to get in a quickie!!! That's a DA term (Detailer's anonymous) lol
 
Here’s my shipping choices for 5 bottles and sprayers from CarPro

$20 bucks worth of merchandise

I'm Chilly and I'm a Detailholic. Today I poured a full bottle of Griot's down the sink and it felt like hell!
 
Maybe you could bribe the British Columbians with some Mooseheads and Canadian bacon to bootleg the sprayers up to you, Mikey??

Im the MAN
