Subject:Wheel Cleaner Spray Bottle Rant
From:luvoldvws

To all,

Has anyone else notice this?

The last two bottles of spray wheel cleaner that I
purchased, the pump spray quit working before I used
up the contents of the bottle.  In both cases I
purchased a cheap empty pump spray bottle at my local
variety store and filled it with the remaining
contents of the wheel cleaner.  This new pump spray
bottle worked for only a couple of applications before
the pump sprayer quit also.

Possible conclusions:

1.  I am the victim of bad luck, most pump sprayers
work well beyond the depletion of their contents.

or

2.  There is a property of wheel cleaner that wears
out pump sprayers prematurely.

or

3.  Wheel cleaner manufacturers want to sell you more
wheel cleaner and design the pump sprayer to fail
early.

What say the list?

Oh, BTW mandatory Vanagon content:  Keep your alloy
wheels clean.  Brake dust build up can erode the metal
of the OEM alloy wheels and do permanent damage.
