The bottles are pressurized with the built-in pump on top. The benefit
is that you just pull and hold the trigger to spray, instead of
repeatedly pumping the trigger, so the trigger mechanism lasts much
longer. They're fantastic to use (no carpal tunnel!), and you can
spray for a long time before you have to re-pump to top up the pressure.
Not sure how they'd stand up in community bike shop use. Possibly not
that well since patrons might get confused by the pump and the lever
and just start reefing on everything. But they're built to withstand
commercial use (much moreso than stuff you buy from Home Depot).

We use citro-cycle degreaser in the spray bottle and then refill
them from bulk bottles. The bottles have lasted at least a year
and we water down the degreaser because it is initially too
strong. It seems to be the best option that we have come across.

Hey All,
Over the years I have purchased dozens of plastic spray
bottles for Community Cycles, we use the for degreaser. I've
found a variety of different models with small differences but
the one thing they have in common is they suck. They tend to
last 4-6 weeks and then become unfix-able garbage.
Does anyone know of something strong and durable?
