Years ago they provided a nice wide bottom spray bottle with the short stroke pump. You could apply small amounts, and
the wide bottom bottle was stable and not easy to tip over. Seems they are gone now? Can't find them anywhere.
The newer bottles are a narrow bottom, probably tip over easy and have the long stroke pump that I think is designed to waste
product. In order to get a far stream you have to pull harder and shoot way more than is needed most times.
SO......what pump bottle do you use with the bulk WD40 cans?

They sell the rectangular bottom one with the wide mouth filler cap.
I have a box of four
And will they shoot a narrow far range stream? Looks like the short stroke pump.
Yes, two modes, wide and long.

Were out of stock at Amazon last time I looked. There are images and recommendations in the spray bottle thread here somewhere.

I will check out that thread. WD40, what the heck? Keep selling the gallon cans but no spray bottles? They know they make a killing
on the aerosol cans and that's what they want folks to buy.

EDIT.. I checked out the "Spray bottle" threads.......holy ****! It's not just me!

I use these, but buy them cheaper elsewhere. I believe I got 2 for $60 You can save on all types of chemicals:

I've had several of those for many years. Great for spraying rust proofing concoctions and solvent for washing off machines.
But worst thing for spraying small focused amounts of wd40 or other for cutting oil type application. They put out a lot of
liquid in short order.

For small amounts I just use 99 cent condiment bottles from Walmart. I dislike spray bottles because when I drop them they always break. I know I'm a clutz.
