Spray bottles made to sell with commercial cleanser products are made as inexpensively as possible - they're just packaging.

The two best spray bottles I've found are the bottle that comes with a gallon jug of Simple Green and this one:

Try a steamer. Great for nooks and crannies on the car too. We have this one:

I'm buying spray bottles all the time....they just don't last. I keep a bleach/water solution in one....kills 'em, particularly if ya don't flush the sprayer after each use, which I do. I also ruined a high $ backpack sprayer by not flushing a bleach solution when I was finished....YMMV.

Yep the earth is flat, the moon landing was created in the Disney studios and aliens walk among us.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Exactly. Our pet store sells pet stain remover for carpets in a spray bottle that only works if you hold it vertically.

Because it was simply a smokescreen to fool the gullible public into thinking it was NOT an excuse to fund ICBM development?

The cold war is over, we have thousands of ICBMs, the public is used to giving NASA $19 billion a year for nothing, there's no need for the excuse anymore.

The dumbest post on Pelican I have seen in a while.

The technology derived from the NASA is staggering. Walk into any hospital and you will see tons of technology invented to monitor astronauts that all hospitals use. The computer we all use is from NASA driven research. The inventions of the IMU

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_measurement_unit

The technology used to purify the water on the space station used all over the world now. The list is endless.

Nothing will ever change your closed mind, I realize that.

The pure science of the Hubble telescope to the rovers on Mars right now all have technologies you will be using on a day to day basis to make your life, and your children's lives better. Yea, really.
