Need recommendation for a sprayer for Sonax Wheel Cleaner

If you buy Sonax Wheel Cleaner in bulk and use a sprayer to apply it to your wheels, and you're happy with that sprayer, what brand/model sprayer is it?

I just finished up my first 5 liter jug of Sonax, and I'm really not happy with the sprayer I bought to use with it (the Flo-Master Lawn & Garden Sprayer by Hudson, Model 24101); it doesn't spray so much as it dribbles the Sonax out of the wand no matter how much I pump it up beforehand, and it's been that way since day one. I figured since I'm about to order my second 5-liter jug, now would be a good time to replace the sprayer.

I'd appreciate any recommendations.

I’m planning to get a few from Plastic Spray Bottles | Garden, Industrial, Household | Obsessed Garage
When Matt starts the raffle for the 997.2 GT3RS.

Not sure what one would work best for Sonax (I love that stuff). Pan the Organizer May have some tips on his channel too.

I used a cheap Home Depot pump bug sprayer from the garden section and it worked perfectly . It was their own internal "HDX" brand they sell, and I want to say I paid abpout $10 for it

I bought that same sprayer last year from Amazon for < $10. Yeah, it isn't made with a lot of precision, but it seems adequate for light use. I can adjust the spray anywhere from a fine mist to a stream. Something may be obstructing the tubing inside the tank, or maybe your hose. Also check the spray nozzle and maybe use a pin to clear it. Oh, don't use the sprayer to store the product you are spraying. I always flush it out with clean water then pump with air to clean in out. IDK what's in Sonax, but it might be caustic enough to damage the sprayer valving.

Thanks for the response. Maybe mine was defective; I could never adjust the spray right from the start, and I've been storing the Sonax in it for almost a year now, so it's probably beyond help...

Spray bottle .50, dawn dish detergent 5.00/monster bottle …. If it works on cleaning wildlife from and ocean oil spill it’s good enough for the OZ’s
