Default These are really handy!

Guys,

On another post, a winemaker was wondering about having to mix up a batch of k-meta solution every time it's needed.

As a side note, I have been using these bottles for years.

I keep 4 or 5 of them filled at all times. Just grab and quirt whenever you need to!

The beauty of these bottles is that the opening at the tip is tapered. you can increase the amount that flows out of the bottle simply by cutting a bit off the end of the tube.

I do not know if anybody else is using these. I have been using the same bottles for about 15 years and got to say that they work very well.

johnT.

Thanks, John. I have a couple of those bottles that I used to use for antique car restoration (solvent to squirt onto parts I was cleaning). I have a couple that are unused and I will try them with K meta. I have been using a spray bottle which also works well.

I have no idea why that came out like that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. It was suppose to be distilled water. I guess I should proof read. LOL

Yes the forum does try to censor some words automatically. I still have no idea why that happened to my posrt.

Dan you know we can't say distilled here! You should say "it is steam treated water to remove impurities"!

Hey it is actually allowing it- did somebody change the censored word list? I bet it still won't let me say **** though!

Hey chick,

I need to correct you,

The plural form of the word "You" is not "y'all"....

for one person it's "You",
for two or more, its "Yous".

(can you tell i'm from Jersey (exit 42)?)
