    P1000295.JPG G,,day
    i purchased a few of these off ebay
    i am very happy .
    and they are cheap !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    the photos are of using one with 50 / 50 acetone . atf .
    the s/s needle nozzle makes it easy to use / apply rxactly where you want .
    these bolts were very badly corroded / rusted .
    it worked very well .

    i hope this may help others .

    cheers

    Kerry , the plastic bottles look good, lots of uses, oil, penetrating oil, etc do you think they would be suitable metho bottles for priming ? Just thinking as you can't have enough of them, I have a small one in a Coleman lamp box and would like one for each but can only find large ones.

    Cheers

    Hello Rob.
    Off the shelf hand sanitizer bottles; the ones that have alcohol based gel in them. Made to go into ladies purses.
    Some are small and ideal as small spirit bottles as that is what they are made for - alcohol with a capped top and seal well.

    The larger household type make good spirit dispensers for household cookers like the like the Primus, Optimus type Nr1, Nr:5s etc.. because they come with a handy pump dispenser.

    Found in supermarkets, dairy stores.
    Cheers, John

    Did not think of a pump dispenser , sounds like a plan, no spilling , sounds like some experimenting will be needed. Lots of those bottles around, especially sunscreen bottles, only thing is that they are not clear so the metho can't be seen. I think I can live with that.

    Cheers

    Gary (Redspeedster) has some good options for meths bottles, I use one myself. His site SBP is on the CCS homepage
