How often do you clean the sprayer to keep it spraying a fine mist of olive oil, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 of bottle filled to fill line? Or how many "pumps"?

I personally hand wash it every few times I fill it. I fill it to the line and pump it till the resistance feels tight. It's easy to use. This is my favorite mister it replaced one by another brand that workers but not as seemlessly. Hope this answers you questions.

If you don't have more than 1/3 cup of oil in the container it works fine. Any more than that it tends to squirt rather than spray. Also Give it a few pumps just before use, the more pressure the better the spray.

I have never had a problem with the sprayer not spraying. I've had this current model for a few months and the older one for about three years. I do not use goopy, sticky cleaners, just water and white vinegar or Castile soap. It probably helps if you remove the cleaner bottle every time you finish using the mop so you don't have any cleaner residue left in the mop.

I have not had a problem yet with the sprayer, but do empty the cleaning solution.

I found mine misted properly for shorter & shorter durations over time. I also had something growing in the oil after a while. I hope you have better luck.

Here is what I do:Fill with water and screw sprayer back on With the squeeze bottle in the upright position (sprayer facing up), place a finger over the air hole (to keep water from spraying when bottle is inverted)Position sprayer as neededRemove finger from air hole & squeeze bottle for stronger stream

hey dave, i added one 32 oz bottle on my last oil change, i will be adding another on my next oil change. this is what is recommended if the first does not completely stop the leaks. my first treatment has helped alot, reducing the leaks to just a small amount. i am hopeful the 2nd treatment will stop it completely. to your question, use one qt of lucas to 4 qts of oil. hope this is helpful and hope it works for you.

I have used the sprayers for Olive Leaf Extract and Poo-Pouri which are both quite thick liquids, so suspect Olive Oil and the like would not be a problem.

I use a 16 oz. spray bottle most often. When I need a bigger supply, I use a standard 3 or 4 gallon pump sprayer. Just mix with water according to instructions.

I spray with olive oil spray before use, and basically just rinse with hot water afterwards. It's not messy like a pan used for frying or scrambling eggs.

I put in 8 drops and have used it to the longest setting 3 days in a row. I am going to clean it out today and put in a different oil. :)

I asked my wife, who has gone to culinary school, this question. She says the oil has too thick of a consistency and will clog up a generic sprayer.

4 to 5 times. It holds pressure as well as any sprayer I have ever owned.Mark

Did you use just oil or have oil & spices? I've been using mine for months with no problem. I have to pump it pretty much every time I use it. Sorry yours doesn't work. I'd send it back.

A LOT. I use it about four times a week, probably 10 sprays each time, and I've had it for two months. Not even 1/4 gone.

If it's the oil it's probably a pump. I've used this product for 5+ years and it's always been a pump. I bought the Marrakesh leave-in conditioner and it was more like a spray.
