  • Recall those crummy original Detailer bottles!

    Grr, just wanted to vent. Man those original detailer spray bottles ****! Fine, the markings were kind of hard to read. Eventually I got used to the fact that they leak like freaking crazy, meaning it's very hard to shake the product in it, and you have to be ultra careful about tipping it even slightly.

    But today was the last straw. I was using Final Detail on the car, and being careful about the constant leaking that drips all over the floor, me, and the car. When I went to set the bottle down so I could wipe the car, the bottle fell right off the sprayer. It hit the ground and tossed Final Detail all over everything in my garage, including both cars and my lawn mower. That did it for me, I emptied a bottle of Quik Detailer, poured the rest of the Final Detail in there, and the FD bottle is going in the recycling bin. I feel like dropping a few flying elbows on it first, though...

    I guess it could have been worse if it had been the bottle of Engine Kote...

    I'm thinking of the printer destruction scene from Office Space....
    As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way.

      Heheh, I really do hate those bottles a lot... But I just scored some free Final Detail, so that has assuaged my anger a bit.

        Aurora40,

        Are the bottles you're talking about our new spray bottles? Or our older spray bottles?

          The old ones. The original Detailer bottles. This bottle is branded for Final Detail.

          The new bottles like my Last Touch 32 oz. bottle are much better.

          But I have the old Final Detail and Engine Kote bottles as I still have those products, and the branded spray bottles are terrible.
