What's everyone's favorite bottle sprayer?

That's weird. My whole inventory of spray bottles are from USP and I've not had any problems with them, other than my rarely used Meg's Wheel Brightner (acidic) bottle/sprayer. I've been using their stuff for at least 4-5 years now.
 
Yeah, my experience has been hit or miss with these sprayers. Kinda seems like they're the lowest common denominator in the equation. I've ordered loads of them from US Plastics and a couple other suppliers. Haven't found much love yet. I ordered some Delta spray heads earlier this week. To me, they appear to be the old Griot's Garage sprayers which were top notch. I'll post when they arrive.
 
Griot's bottles/sprayers: Mmm...They have that new smaller bottle. I've been thinking about trying it out because their distribution center is about 20 minutes from me.

I like the looks of these:

By the way, where can you buy the Delta sprayers? Wonder if they'd be cheaper than buying through Griots.
 
To me, this looks like the old Griot's sprayer that I like:

Mike, I've got a bunch of those chem resistant sprayers from USP. Aren't those by Tolco?

BTW, "we" really can't purchase directly from Delta cuz they've got pretty big minimums.
 
Yes, I believe so. But they are cheaper through USP than other places I looked at.

Yeah, I know what you mean about purchase Delta sprayers. Wondered if there was a retailer that might be cheaper than Griot's since they are definitely marking it up to put their name on it.
 
mshu7- Ah, those are different from the USP sprayers I had, so maybe some of theirs are perfectly OK. That's great, your being so close to a GG distribution center!

tom p.- Yeah, I'm still using some *OLD* GG sprayers that I've had since forever. Only had a few of 'em die over the last >20 years. They changed 'em a few years ago, haven't really decided whether I like the new ones as well. I'm *not* a big fan of their foaming sprayers, thought they'd be great for Rubber Cleaner for tires but retired (heh heh) them after just a few uses.
 
Not a fan of the foaming GG sprayers either, Accumulator. TBH, I've not found MY "perfect" foaming sprayer yet. I've tried a few.

Yeah, that's why I've focused on that sprayer...I've got some very old ones as well and they still function perfectly after all these years. I don't like the newer sprayer. I'd say I dis-like them enough that I stopped buying some of the Griot's products because of it.

I'm not keen on the foamers either. I don't think they work well...at least the ones I've tried.
 
I've tried a lot of sprayers:

This is my preferred sprayer. I'm fairly certain it's an old Griot's:

Accumulator - Have you tried the new ones from the 22 oz. bottle they now carry? Just based on looks, I want to try them.

I've gone through a few of them. They are Ok - but they don't put out a ton of volume. I'd have to say my favorite sprayer is the Griot's / Rubbermaid. That's what I use most. Tolcos are pretty good as well.

No, I haven't tried those...heh heh, I'm not buying stuff in little bottles these days and ordering empty spray bottles from Griot's gets pricey, even by my standards!

Ya know, for some reason the looks of those makes *me* LESS inclined to try them! Heh heh, I can't tell you just why, but that's how they strike me. Eh, I could be 100% wrong and maybe I'd love 'em.
