Default Atomizer for Silkspan

I need another atomizer for spraying water onto silkspan. My old one is getting to be like a sneezing kid, with big and small droplets everywhere.

The last one came off of a cleanser bottle. I need a "hands on" suggestion as to obtaining one with a much finer spray. Preferably one out of a bottle from the supermarket.

Default Spray Bottle

Any old spray bottle works for me because I saturate the silk span while laying on a towel and then blot it with another towel and it is perfect!

Yes but some times with complex areas I need exra gentle spray
to keep the silk just right and a spray bottle is too much.

I was just cleaning the bathroom the other day and was impresseed with the fine mist from the Windex bottle. You might try one. There's a few bigger droplets that come out but that's pretty much par for the course with most of them. I just hold the bottle back a little so the big drops land on the floor.

You might also checkout the cosmetics counter and ask for something cheap that has a good spray bottle. They'll look at you a little funny but they should know something that works. Just be sure to clean it out well or the smell will linger and your flying buddies will look at you funny like.....

Atomizer.

Try going to a cooking gourmet shop and ask for a "hand pump spray bottle". Chefs use these bottles to spray oils onto their fixins. These sprayers hold 8-10 oz of liquid, and the top-cap serves double duty by also acting as the pump. Once pumped, you merely push the nozzle as though you were spray painting. Cost should be around $8. I use oil in mine and the spray is very fine. Try it with H2O and if you don't like it, dump it and fill it with olive oil and spary a piece of meat. Hope this helps.

Febreze bottle puts out a pretty fine mist.
