OK if you have lots of wet things I suppose.

Parts out the ultrasonic, rinse in fresh water, blow dry with compressed air, spray with wd40.

You can buy it in gallon cans, 5 gallon cans, 55 gallon drums, and IIRC if you call and arrange it, by the tank car load.

Might be a bit excessive for my use!

You can always burn it for heat next winter.....
Not so much with the spray cans....

Get the right ultrasonic fluid and you don't have to bother with any of that, just out the tank and leave to dry.

Dipping stuff would be easier than spraying!

I don't normally buy it to be fair, it has limited uses, but when it's near enough half price it's handy to have a can of two around.

straw cans! what will they think of next?

You would also be breathing in allot less of the vapors with dipping.

It's great for killing wasps, I don't use it for much else.

 

[My Old Landy]

I use it whilst machining aluminium and to disperse water

I'm hearing news about a tiny atomizing nozzle, and then someday paint will be sold in them...

With or Without an ignition source ?

Without - a quick mist and it will instantly drop them out of the air. If you have never tried it, be prepared to be amazed.

Adding an ignition source is probably not a smart move when trying to deal with an annoyed stingy thing buzzing around a workshop full of flammable material.

The Ultimate Authority claims it cleans the stainless steel cooker hood better than the manufacturer's recommended product that costs 3 times as much as WD40.

She seems to find new uses for it regularly - rather like Avon's Skin So Soft apparently.

I buy it in 5L and use with hand spray bottle find it easier to apply in those, about 30 quid last time, generally use it for cleaning and wiping down and with ali on mini lathe & mill.

Had a 5L container and spray bottle for about 15 years, still plenty left. Occasionally buy some of the better branded aerosols but when they run out I've still got the old WD to fall back on.

It's also good for oiling slate btw.
