Coincidentally I was just faced with the same issue. I filled the bottle in p=
reparation for my MA inspection, just in case I needed to demo the awesome p=
ower of my vintage sprayers.   The humongous zip tie is just the ticket.  (C=
an=E2=80=99t believe I had one on hand, 36=E2=80=9D). White like the bottle a=
nd can leave it just loose enough to slide the bottle out if necessary.  Tha=
nk you John for the solution!=20
