P21S Wheel Cleaner!



The thing leaks like crazy, both at the collar and the sprayer exit-hole. I've spilled/lost quite a bit of product already and everything was secured as tightly as it could be. So if you have this wheel cleaner, you may want to transfer to another bottle or at least be sure to keep the sucker upright.

You should let P21S know. . . or at least the retailer you bought it from. A wheel cleaner should not be leaking from its OEM packaging. That can be big problems (EPA) for the manu.
 
I've had a couple of problems with my poorboy's sprayers. the bottles were fine, the sprayers themselves were fine, but the pickup tubes were cut too fricking short. there was like an inch of liquid left in my TR and S&W bottles that the sprayer coulnt pick up because the tube was too short. I ended up transferring the products into an old meg's QID bottle. I love thos sprayer bottles.

I agree with Andrew, I would contact the retailer and they should take care of you, and request a credit from P21S for the loss. If that doesn't work contact P21S, either way the manufacture needs to know so they can resolve any passable issues in the future.

That is unusual. I use their S100 Total Cycle Cleaner on the Harley's I detail and I've never had a problem with the sprayer and as near as I can tell, it is one and the same.
 
Thanks. Yeah, I think I may send a quick note to the retailer. It may be the case that it's just my bottle in particular. I'll see when I order more if I have the same problem.
 
#1 Megs Vinyl/Rubber Protectant (same sprayer as regular QD but it doesnt work well with this product)

#2 Crystal Mist (drip drip drip)

#3 FK1 #425 (more leakage)



I have had no problems with the Poorboys sprayers myself.
 
I have two different sprayers from Poorboy's.... one kind on my S&W and another on my S&G. I love the one on my S&G. It has the OFF/SPRAY/OFF/STREAM type nozzle on it. The one on my S&W is terrible. It's blue and white (like the other sprayer) but has a twist nozzle on the end and that thing drips like mad. It's so aggravating.



I've also had the same problems with the P21S Wheel Cleaner nozzle. It's terrible.

There was a big thread a while back about the Poorboy's sprayers which were really good and then they changed to some other ones, which as you say are awful, they drip like crazy.



Maybe the new P21S sprayers are different, I have old ones that I keep reusing with the refill bottles (not that I go through that much, really), but I don't have any problems with them.
 
I never thought much about sprayers until I used one for OrangeGlo hardwood floor cleaner (y'know...'Billy Mays here!'). It's this funky design head / trigger-looks nothing like a normal sprayer. Incredible mist-would be great for QD's. Probably clean mine out when it's empty and put Z6 in it.
