A note on the pressol bottles / triggers. I’ve used both the household and industrial grade bottles for over a year and would like to share some feedback. To start, P&S break buster still breaks them over time, sad but no surprise. That being said, Matt told me he’s working with pressol to see what can be done about this. On the other hand, the triggers are not only more durable than average triggers, they are also dual action and have very good atomization. Are they necessary, absolutely not, but the dual action is very nice when using products that are used heavily. When looking at the bottom line, they are not the highest value, but when using tools over years, little things like reduced hand pain from squeezing half as much adds more value than the little costs saved in certain applications. Just my $.02

Kwazar dual action trigger 360 with Viton seals. Had several for round 4 years and still going strong.

I always keep a bottle of water with me and when I get done using a cleaner that is really low PH or really high pH which is acidic or alkaline, I always insert the nozzle from the cleaner I just used into the bottle of water and spray it probably about 10 times to flush out the chemicals that was in it. This makes the nozzles last a whole lot longer. I always use nozzles for that specific pH level.

Very well said Luke. The trigger heads are the failure point on every bottle I have ever owned over the past 40+ years of detailing (including all the high end brands such as Kwazar, IK, Pressol, etc etc) so you'd think that at least one manufacturer of detailing equipment around the world would have figured out how to make a trigger head that doesn't fail or at least last's for a reasonable amount of time for the money. I think most detailers would actually pay more money for a quality trigger head that doesn't fail so often, but probably not the general public who probably buy the cheapest bottle they can find.

You can also flush out the spray triggers with water after every use and they will last indefinitely. I’ve had this experience with bleach.

You
..are..the...G.O.A.T

Every damn video you come with these seemingly obvious tips of knowledge that are SO USEFULL. keep doing this forever please!:)

Buy the solo battery powered trigger. Throw the bottle in the trash. Put the trigger on an IK. 2nd best combo is car pro dilution bottle with solo trigger or gray tolco like in vid.

[Redawesomeoby]

Eh, just got one chemical that is only available in a gallon soz going a little more expensive on a nice sprayer for it makes some sense for me

[turbo]

playing this video at 0.75 speed helps my anxiety ☺👍

[derrickabare]

I simply pump water through the trigger at the end of each day . Cleans them out .

[rcrbrewster]

Hi. Do the TOLCO Grey replacement triggers screw onto the expensive iK bottles ?

Thank U

[JBIRD]

Auto brite orange and gray tops bottles work

[williamclick]

Thanks much for your video. I train at Planet Fitness. Not to long ago Planet Fitness changed there spray nozzles on there spray bottles there not worth crap. They break easily. I learned right then I didn't want this to happen to me. Have a suggestion use distilled water in another bottle to clean the spray nozzle. Don't know if this would work but it's worth a try. Thanks again for your video.

Any recommendations of triggers for things like acetone, alcohols, etc... Not a detailer but a cleaner and when it comes to hot liquids like alcohols or that nature you can use a trigger for a bit and swap out for another cheapie but then have to deal with a spray or mist you don't prefer.

The trigger bottle that's lasts the longest for me was 50 pence from DIY store, ran all sorts though it

Ik makes a mean pump sprayers and foamer, but all hand spray triggers eventually fail. Like Luke, I keep a lot in stock and a few on hand when I'm mobile detailing. About once a week I do take them apart to soak in hot water, especially in hot or cold temps. Products tend to gum up in the nozzles and pump pistons. It will improve the longevity of even the cheap ones, but it's highly advised to get the chemical resistant ones.

Amen my brother thank you for saying it. Ain't no way in hell I'm spending all that money on those fancy bottles when I just need my sprayer to work when I needed to work. Thank you

[zachpieper]

All I use is the ik spray bottles with the cheap gray spray triggers and the gold spray triggers.

[Spectrum_Auto_Spa]

I’m a fan of the agrifab spray bottles with the double spray trigger.

What about triggers specifically advertised as acid-resistant? I'm sure they're not cost effective, as they cost more, but I wonder if they really stand the acid test.
