I'm looking for a good spray bottle that will handle kerosene, WD40, acetone, etc. Hand pump, trigger, rechargeable air pressure....what works?

I have my WD-40 in the squirt bottle that came with the gallon can. I also have some other oils, tap free and Kroil, in some squirt bottles that I got when I worked at GE. Those were probably bought in bulk from Grainger or MSC. They have worked for 17 years plus.

I have a couple of the '' SURE SHOT '' sprayers and work well. Mine are around 10 years old.

I buy Spray-Nine in the one litre spray bottle. It has the best sprayer I've ever used. You can turn it from off to spray or squirt. It works as good as or better than and lasts longer than any expensive janitors bottles I've bought. And they are all the same so storage is easy. I find expensive janitors bottles are always cylindrical and fall over easily when you accidentally bump them on a shelf.

I have so many empty Spray Nine bottles, that I use them for everything from weed killer to ArmorAll.

Now I just buy my liquid shop supplies in one gallon refills.

And by the way. Spray Nine is the best cleaner I've ever used.

Woops, a little slow.

Anyway, ....
Brakleen (Brake Clean) can be purchased in gallons, non-aerosol. ~$26.00.

I haven't been able to find any type of trigger type spray bottle that will last with acetone. It doesn't take long before the seal goes to **** and they won't spray.

I found that happened with WD-40, but with an WD-40 branded spray bottle it was OK.

Must be different style seals.

Have you tried a WD-40 bottle?

The ones that Chemical Guys sell work well with everything, including professional wax and grease remover.
