Squirt Bottle vs Bucket

How many people prefer using a squirt bottle to wet there mops over a bucket?

flip top bottle inside, bucket outside most of the time.

I take a bucket to the job but leave it outside. I use a squirt bottle for inside stores. I like to use a lot of water outside my storefronts so I used a bucket that helps me really saturate my mop.

we use a bottle, if our mops get too dirty we’ll rinse them out but by using a bottle our water stays clean all day.

Bottle inside all the time ( I can slosh water out of my square bucket if I look at it funny). Outside I use bucket if the job is big, but still use the bottle if it is a smallish job where I only might need to re-wet the mop a few times.

I like to use a bucket outside. Inside I have recently started using the Moerman squeegee with a Fliq attachment. I will carry in a Squirt/Spray bottle and spray the interior window, then wipe with the Fliq, flip it back and finish with the squeegee. This has worked pretty well for me and has saved some time.

I utilize both. Always squeeze bottle inside for resi.
For stirefront squeeze bottle insides as long as it’s not huge.
For outsides if I pull up to a stop , an it’s a lot of glass I always bring out the bucket

Round buckets always for storefronts , or anything really

How about some pics of the setup ( looking for things that work) Not sure if I missed in in the rigs post.

its a huge time saver . I mostly use a wagtail or now (the excelrator ) but with this type of tool you dont need a drenched mop to move far. We dunk our mops once in our bucket and leave it in the vehicle. once our mops start drying out we just squirt some on the mop itself.

I feel lopsided without the bucket. It makes me feel like I’m missing something. I did watch a vid with the Squeeze bottle and I bring that inside with me But to go with no Bucket is foreign territory for me I would probaley fall

my buckets hold stuff. Squeeze bottle and Aztec screen washer all day every day. I have not used a bucket for several years.

Wow thanks for all of the replies…

Two squirt bottles on belt.

Two ninja bob (oops. ignore random sleeve)

Bucket in the car.

Wet mop, wagtail before each stop. Can do inside outside of a fast food restaurant with that. Bucket only leaves car for excessively dirty stores.

Note on squeeze bottles- they have different “squeezinesses”. If they are too limp, no good. Mrs meyers works well for me. You can get a stream up to the second story.

I went to target and bought like 12 all at once. Dumped all the soap into a little bucket ( for my wife, Lol)( actually not sure what she did with it…)

Anyway, I think they are 11? oz. Its Their dish soap and only comes one size. Been working pretty good. :blush:
