Solvent Sprayers?

**Beemerboy** · 10-29-2012, 01:22 PM

I work on a lot of motorcycles, the bottoms can be real nasty, caked on oil and grime.

What I have been using with no problem is Stoners Tarminator, which works like a charm. The issue is I can go thought a can on one bike, and it`s expensive.

I was thinking about getting a pneumatic solvent sprayer. Anyone have experience with these?

This link is what I was thinking, then I could get a long spray nozzle for getting into tight places.

I don`t have any experience with them but looked at them a few months ago too. I was looking at this one [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Vaper-Spot-Sprayer-Non-Aerosol-Model/dp/B0035FH906/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1351538933&sr=8-1"]Vaper Spot Sprayer[/ame]. Looks like the same specs as what your looking at for less money. The reviews on Amazon are pretty good and detailed too.

I was just looking for something for waterless wash but decided to stay with my 32oz pump up garden sprayer for now.

I don`t have any experience with them but it looks interesting. If you decide to buy one let us know what you think

Yes I`ve used them before and it would work great for what your wanting to spray. I`m not sure how your going to do the longer spray nozzle though.

Dave, I used to sell those where I work and the company stop selling them because of slow sell`s. As far as I remember everyone who got it said work like a charm for them.

The upfront cost is way too high for a lot of people and businesses I would think that had a lot to do with the slow sales. Kind of hard to spend 55.00 on something you can spend 2.00 on. Long term your ahead but most look at the now cost.

Thanks all, the reason I selected pneumatic canister, is so I could shoot with pressure cleaning solution into tight areas. Motorcycles can be a real challenge getting into certain areas. One trick that I have learned in cleaning metals of oil and grime, is to spray the solution on the area, let dwell and use a brush if you can get in there. Then I use a air compressor and blow the living day lights out of it, then repeat until the metals are clean. This has saved me a tremendous amount of time and doing a much better job on the Harley`s I work on
