    AIO Bottles

    Having read on this board, (and others), about the ease with which an AIO bottle can be broken, I decided to make a change.
    My AIO for regular use is in a 2 oz. sample bottle. 2 oz. is more than enough to do any of my vehicles multiple times. If I do manage to break it, I lose 2 oz., not 16.9 oz. The sample bottles seem to be a much more resilient plastic as well. A side benifit is the fact that the small bottle can fit into a pocket while using the PC to apply the AIO. No bottle on the floor to worry about kicking or hitting with the electric cord.

    Probably gonna try it with the UPP just for the convenience.

    Charles I dropped two bottles of AOL already, the last one just happened the other day. (from two feet it exploded!) So I now put AOL in a small squeeze tip 8oz bottle. Way too expensive to take another chance/

    Imagine that...I used one of my extra 2 oz Zaino "mixing" bottles just because I knew using that 33 oz AIO bottle would be a real pain...now I`m glad I did. BTW...I put 2 coats of AIO on the whole car and 3 coats on the hood/roof and I used less than an ounce of AIO (using the PC no less) not bad at all.

    Thanks for the info!! It is suprising that they have been around for a while and have not corrected the simple problem.

    we order aio by the case and consider it a miracle if it comes in without broken bottles. it`s more the norm to loose two or three bottles than to get a an order with all of them in tact. i feel your pain...

    Guess I`m lucky... Both my AIO bottles were delivered intact and the orders where they came took about two months to get here.
