Spray Triggers & Replacement Heads

A new trigger turns an empty bottle into a sprayer, or saves one that has started to drip, spit or lose its prime. We carry trigger spray heads for 28mm bottle necks (our own replacement trigger spray head and the Better Detailing Trigger Spray Head 28/410), IK's TR 1 hand trigger sprayers in HC, Multi and Multi 360 versions, and the ValetPro 5L Dispenser Pump Trigger for bulk cans.

How to choose

• Chemical: a basic trigger suits quick detailers, glass and interior cleaners. Acids, strong degreasers and solvents need a rated trigger. IK's TR 1 comes in HC and Multi versions for different chemical groups.
• Angle: the IK Multi TR-1 360 is designed to spray with the bottle tilted or upside down, which helps inside wheel arches and under sills.
• Fit: a replacement head must match the bottle's neck thread, and its dip tube should reach the bottom, so trim a tube that is too long at an angle.
• Bulk cans: the ValetPro pump trigger goes on a 5 litre container. See also Pump Dispensers.

Good to know

• After acidic, alkaline or solvent products, spray clean water through the trigger so the chemical does not dry inside and attack the seals and spring.

Why has my spray bottle trigger stopped working?

Usually dried product in the nozzle or a worn seal. Spray warm water through it to clear the nozzle, check the dip tube reaches the bottom of the bottle, and screw the head on tight so it holds its prime. Acids, degreasers and solvents wear out ordinary triggers, so use the IK TR 1 version rated for that chemical.
