The discreet yet indispensable ally of any slot or model workshop
The SC-5082 Liquid Applicator Bottle is one of those tools that, without taking the spotlight, makes a difference in the daily operations of the workshop. With a capacity of 20 ml and an integrated applicator, it allows for precise dispensing of liquids without spills, keeping the workbench clean and tidy.
Main features
- Capacity: 20 ml
- Incorporates an applicator for controlled dosing
- Available with a cap in 4 different colours, facilitating visual identification of each liquid
- Compact and manageable design, adapted for workshop use
Applications in the hobby
In the slot workshop, static models, figures, and dioramas coexist with a multitude of liquids: engine oils, axle and gear lubricants, cleaning fluids, thinners, low-viscosity glues… Keeping them in unlabelled bottles or large original containers is a source of errors and accidents. This bottle solves that problem simply.
Thanks to the colour coding on the cap, we can assign a colour to each type of liquid and recognise it at a glance, without the need to read labels or open the wrong bottles. The applicator allows access to hard-to-reach areas —rear axles, mounts, gears— with just the right amount, avoiding excess that could stain the body or chassis.
Recommended assembly and use
Simply fill the bottle with the desired liquid and close it with the corresponding colour cap. To dose, tilt the bottle slightly and press gently; the applicator releases the fluid gradually and in a controlled manner. We recommend also labelling the side of the bottle if multiple are used simultaneously in the same workspace.
Ideal for…
- Preparers and slot enthusiasts who work with several lubricants and cleaners at once
- Modellers who need to manage thinners, retarders, or other fluids in small quantities
- Organised workshops where order and precision are part of the process
