Car wash dispenser

[farmboy]

This is what I use to dispense my wash products. The M9912 12oz bottle. I use a five gallon bucket for washing. I fill it up with approx 4 gallons of water with 1/3 of the M9912 bottle put in the bucket. It takes the guessing out of mixing solution. The bottle is also very easy to fill with its wide opening. ADS sells these for 1.00.

I have a whole collection of M9912 bottles, they work great don't they! Now if I could just find all those little red caps.

They seem to be the same caps that are used on silicone tubes or certain oil products (gear oil). Of course only clean ones.

It's also easier to carry around than the big bottle of GC wash. Great idea Farmboy! I need to get some 12 oz. bottles from ADS on my next order.

Handy bottles. Could be used for all your products. Whenever you have to detail a car at a remote location, you can just take those small bottles with you instead of the full-size bottles.

Now I wish they had them here in Belgium. Oh well, I'll try to find them anyway.

Well, I guess I’m the spoiled sport here. The 9912 is great for wax and polish and such but I don’t like it for wash soap. They’re too small for my tastes. Three washes before a refill isn’t enough for me. Having to keep track of the cap is annoying too but not a big deal. On the plus side they have a wide mouth compared to other 12 oz. bottles.

Haven’t found the ideal soap dispenser bottle yet but so far the most functional I’ve found is a particular style of bicycling water bottle. They come in 24 oz (700ml) and 27 oz (800ml) sizes, are rugged as heck, have a huge mouth for easy filling and have a built in dispenser cap.


The down side is that you have to pay for them (about six bucks in a bike shop, less online) and I’m really uncomfortable putting cleaning chemicals into food containers. If you use one be sure to label it clearly.
