Bought some of this stuff a few months back (2 cans for £20)

Just looking for a mate and came across this:- £29.99 for 1 Litre of the stuff!!

It's quite thick, so not all squirty bottles work... I use one of the bottles and a paraffin gun, works a charm

I bought it at that price from Busters a while back. Also included was a small squirtyspray bottle, which is more or less useless. I have resorted to a using a small brush.

What's a paraffin gun?

Two cans for £20 works out cheaper than a litre for £29.99.

Squirty gun that you use with an air compressor... You could probably use an underbody gun too, but paraffin guns are about £3 :)

I see. But you need an air compressor behind it.. mmmm I think I'll nick Sharon's cooking oil sprayer :lol:

Yeah, that ought to work. Plant squirters don't, or at least mine didn't.

I thought the cans were 200ml ?

Anyone found the best price for this stuff?

400ml was the size in the ads I saw.

OK, been looking around, I guess you mean the 13oz (US) cans, these were £10 each at the NEC, and I can find 2 for £20 at M+P and Busters, but both charge £5 delivery..

Well spotted though, makes the 1 litre, (34 ounces) no better deal.
