I use Peroxide/Stain Magic and Cobbs Red remover on basically every job. I am so sick of dealing with crappy sprayers. Anybody else got a trick for applying products without having to use a sprayer.

Yes don't use a sprayer.

Get a small bottle with flip top, squirt a little down, and brush it in.

I second the flip top lid approach. I have never put products like that in a sprayer.

I concur. Flip lids are ok for rust remover but I don't want to waste product soaking the carpet with red remover or stain magic. Are you using chemical resistant sprayers?

Mike go to Walmart and pick up purple power or superclean in trigger sprayers

They're the most durable ones I've found

Oxidizers trash a sprayer pretty quickly

I just go to interlink and buy about 20 of the blue trigger sprayers and keep in a bag on the truck.

No bottles just the sprayers.

I use triggers for both of these, I get months of use out of em. After each use take the trigger off the bottle and clear it out back into the bottle and it last much longer. I don't use chem resistant sprayers the cheap ones from a jan san place. I use 40vol from Sally's and Harvard Stain Blaster.

buy 4 hole spout caps from cobbs. They are only like 30 cents each. I buy a dozen or so at a time. They fit directly onto most bottles like red one. They don't put out too much product but enough to make them quick to use. I squeze bottle and use a circle moition. Then I use my foot to work it all in the stain. simple works great.
