I have found many sources for sprayers, bottles, etc. Of course you can get them online, from your favorite detailing website, at places like Containers and More stores, etc. But I happened to be at a beauty supply store the other day (Don`t ask.) and I hit the motherload of cheap supplies.
They had sprayers in many sizes and with different spray patterns and atomizers. Squeeze bottles came in many sizes and had a myriad of tops. Some with cone shaped pour spouts both long and short and even angled. (I am told hair colorists use these for accurate placement of dye.) They also had a lot of different small containers which would hold product or wax. They even had things available in mix and match color coded designs so you can look cool and be organized.
They also had a wide variety of medical swabs...essentially q-tips on steroids. I use these by the hundreds when detailing.
Also, I found manicure filing boards of all types. They had a variety of different grits from rough to around (I estimate) 1000 grit. All different shapes and sizes. I find all sorts of uses for these when I am doing repairs touch ups of all kinds. It`s like getting sandpaper with a backing board. Pretty handy.
Anyway, in case you need something in a pinch (or CHEAP) you may want to check out the beauty supply store in your area. The exact store I went to was called Sally Beauty Supply, which is a chain. You probably have something similar near you.
Oh, and I look so pretty now! (wink)
