[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 439703, member: 539"] What are you using these sprayers for, and are you mixing the weed killer/fertilizer/whatever with anything besides water? We've got 3 cheap, plastic pump up sprayers - 1 is at least 6 years old (brought it home with me from Georgia back in May 2002), 1 is probably 4 years old, and the 3rd one is at least a year old - not a lick of trouble from any of them, so far. The only thing they have in common is that they were cheap, and the compound being used is mixed with water, and maybe a little drip oil (I use empty 5 gallon drip oil buckets to carry extra water while spraying) only. They get used, they get rinsed out, they may or may not get water sprayed from the nozzle after use (depends on the mood of the sprayer and any time contraints), then they get stuck back in the shed to dry out. If you're using brush/weed killer mixed with diesel, diesel will destroy plastic relatively quickly. Could that possibly be the problem? [/QUOTE]
