    New 5 Gallon container design for Spray & Wipe

    One of the recent lost threads concerned the latest developments at Poorboy`s World. Besides all the talk about new products, I don`t remember anyone mentioning the design of the new 5 gallon Spray and Wipe containers. I bought a 5 gallon pail last year, and struggled with trying to dispense the liquid into more manageable sized containers (like gallon jugs and 32 oz bottles). I talked with Steve about this issue, and he investigated a few methods for making the container more user friendly. The result is a new rectangular container with better handholds and an optional on/off spigot. See attached.

    Steve - Thanks for listening to your customers and working to provide such user friendly solutions! :mohawk

    Now that is nice! I knew I got in too much of a hurry to order my last 5 gal bucket of S&W. It sat all winter, had to move it into the house so it wouldn`t freeze and I`m just now ready to open it and transfer the contents into gallon jugs. Nice work Steve! Is it refillable?
    Dream big and be willing to do the work to get there.

    Jim yes it`s refillable, but not with Spray and Wipe no really that`s the largest container I will have transported due to cost, unless there are special orders for larger ones, which would be drop shipped directly from the factory

    yes Hans similar to a water jug but made to hold chemicals..I`m not in the plastic biz so I really couldn`t say for sure:dunno

    Steve, you should market those with the whole rack system. Get a pail of S&W & NL and you are good to go!

    S&W does not require shaking.

    Have you tried the spigot yet? I`m interested in hearing about how well it works.

    It weighs a little less than 50 pounds. I don`t even want to think about how much it would cost to ship that to Portugal. :bigscream

    AWD 330 "Have you tried the spigot yet? I`m interested in hearing about how well it works."

    Well I have just used Spray and Wipe for the first time and I can`t believe how good it worked. First, let me start off by saying that the new container is great and the with the spigot attachment, I could not see it possibly getting any easier to dispense. I did not lose one drop while dispensing. Now on to the my wifes car. She has a black RAV-4 that was VERY dirty. A very small amount of S&W cleaned it to perfection in no time at all. Then I could not wait to use the new and improved QD+ so I gave it a whirl. I have never used the original, but this stuff was a breeze to put on and off and it smells great. After about 1/2 hour, the car looks great. It looks as if I had spent alot longer than I did on it. I`M SOLD ON POORBOYS!
