Spray bottles with dilutions marking and reliability?

[Mindflux]

Some time ago I bought 4 Spraymaster Sprayers at Home Depot. These came with a 5 year warranty, well today the last head bit the bullet and now I have no working spray heads for these.

I am in the process of writing the company to see if I can get them replaced but figured I would ask what you folks use for spray bottles. Preferably with dilutions marking on them. I think I paid 8 bucks per bottle for these which is just bonkers.. but would be ok if they didn't go belly up.

Thanks!

What are you using in them?

Some times chemicals can break down the rubber inside and they stop squirting..

I have had some for two and three seasons that I use for APC and such, others that I used for wheel cleaners can wear out a bit faster...what I do with those is take the top off after I'm done and put in the bucket and spray some threw to clean out the inside...that helps greatly...

The ones that I get are from two places...Home Depot type stores and I buy the 5 to 7 buck ones...I also get them at Janitorial supply houses, they are much better than most and you can buy just the spray end.

As for the markings they are accurate enough for what we are doing, (detailing) where not making bombs

Since the strongest chemical I use is Meguiar's APC+, I get by with the $1 to $1.50 ones available at Wal*Mart and the dollar stores.
I bought some supposedly better quality Zep brand bottles and sprayers and didn't care for them at all. I think I ended up giving the spray heads away.

APC+ Pre-VOC (4:1), Poorboys S&W (Circa 2004).. nothing harsher than APC+ though.
