Hey Reed... how soon you forget! I tipped you about spray bottles for tough/small areas. ;)
Here's another use for them... when I use a twinkie for doing spindles e.g. just the outsides when I've sprayed the 3 insides, or to touch-up areas like under rails or below them, press the end of the twinkie into the spray bottle nozzle and give it a couple of quick squeezes to soak it. Swipe a spindle (or 2), and reload. Once you get into a rythum it's pretty quick, controls amount of product you need, and saves time and the body movement of bending or moving to a pot or tray to pick-up product and move to apply it.
