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.

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

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