I have just used the detergent bottle that came with my Nilfisk pressure washer. Is that not good enough? From looking a the photos I feel mine is a lot more watery and doesn't stick enough.

The AB one is tried and tested by 1000's of professionals. I looked at all the cheap ones but it wasn't worth the risk to save a tenner or so.. WM |

I've seen plenty of threads on DW about members complaining about the quality of the AB lance. And the lance I posted a link to is tried and tested by many of us from DW |

I bought one of the AB lances when they first came out, which must be well over 5 years ago, and never had any problems other than the bottles eventually degrade & fall to bits! |

Thread on some water bottles [ Evian and Perrier ] seem to be the same size and fit just right

the 25 quid ones of eBay are perfectly fine.
I've been washing two cars a week for the last three years without issue |
