Attempted this today. Ordered everything you recommended. Worked flawlessly! Super stoked about not having to pump the sprayers anymore!!
Awesome!
Converted 3 pump sprayers using your exact instructions (29/64ths indeed!) about an hour ago. Easy, peasy. Works perfectly. I used some Sil-Glyde (Silicone) lubricant on both the nipple and the bottle to aid in pulling it through the hole and seating properly. Like you, I found using a pair of Channellocks really helps! Thanks for the great tip and explanation.
Awesome! Glad I could help.
A couple of tips. 7/16 bit is 11.11mm which is .39mm smaller than the 11.5mm/.453" RIM valve stem making a better tighter seal and you don't need to spend $10 on a bit you will only use for this. Valve puller tools also come in handy if you already have one to pull it through without worrying about damaging it with pliers. Also 20mm/.866" Long stems are shorter and have less clearance issues. Great vid through, straight to the point.
Thanks for the tips!
90 degree stems are even better
A link on Amazon for a shorter valve ? Thanks
The drill bit 7/16 used didn’t work. That wasn’t a good tip. Too small for the valve to fit. Use what the guy says.
@@leexiong9962 I’ve done 20 of these with a 7/16s but and a valve stem puller with zero issues. If the valve stem you’re using is larger than 11.5mm/.453” then yes you will have an issue which is why I specified those dimensions in my post.
Awesome! Seen this covered a few times randomly around the internet but NEVER with the very detailed and specific assembly parts list. Going to look for an affordable of a that long schrader valve for visual aestics.
I agree Miranda nailed it! #ForTheAlgorhythm #FTA
Thanks!
Great one Phil! Thanks for taking the time to share that! I will be trying this.
You are very welcome
Good video topic Phil I did the same to all of mine . They work so mush better than hand pumping so much.
Thanks Phil for your DIY install .
I drilled and tapped mine and I have a screw-in Shrader valve. I also used a bunch of superglue on the threads to make sure it doesn't come out. The valves you used looks a lot easier to install than what I did. Plus you don't need the NPT thread tap. I keep it going with a small battery powered tire pump. I see iK sprayers have an airpump now, also.
which tire pump?
This will really come in handy. Thanks for the instructional video
Thanks Phil! I'm going to upgrade my marolex sprayer as well 👍
genius thank you! My lawn sprayer is getting this modification too!
Definitely will do this. Great video!
Thanks!
Gonna practice with Home depot pump sprayer before going with the expensive ones
Hi Miranda, has there been any long term issues with such a modification? Is this still something you would recommend?
Hi. I still use them to this day. Phone of them have failed.
How much pressure could the M Marolex x 3000 hold Phil? Nicely done.
Actually, I'm not sure because I didn't look at the pressure gauge. I simply fill it until the safety valve pops but I think last time I saw it was maybe around 20psi.
@@thedetailingworkshop2689 understood 👍
Great mod. Can you do this mod for a 5litre? I live in a flat and want to clean my TTS (It's a small car so can do the foam by pump but need more power for water..) Thanks!
Hi. Yes you can. If it’s plastic you can do this.
Excellent idea. My next project.
How long does the sprayer work between re pressurising
What about the cheaper HDX bigger garden sprayers from Home Depot? Do these styles have blowoff valves as well?
Hi. Yeah I have this one www.homedepot.com/p/HDX-2-Gallon-Multi-Purpose-Lawn-and-Garden-Pump-Sprayer-1502HDXA/307766539
Thanks Phil 👍😁
Awesome!!! Thank you.
@the detailing workshop how has this been holding up? I just bought everything to do this soon and seeing how well it’s held up since you’ve done it. Thanks for the tips!
Hi. They work perfectly. I have had these stems on other bottles and they work great after a year of use.
@@thedetailingworkshop2689 I just did them over the weekend to 4 of my bottles and they are PERFECT
Awesome to hear!
Awesome hack, i was wondering once filled with air to maximum if you can have enough pressure foam a car down without going to hand pumping?
Hi. That really depends on the size of sprayer itself. Usually these small ones will do about half the vehicle.
Curious if this would void any warranty from factory? Also is Miranda a Firefly reference?
Well I'm not worried about the warranty on spray bottles, but probably would void the warranty. Miranda is our last name. but Firefly is awesome!
@The Detailing Workshop heck yea its awesome!!!!
Great video. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I have the Axel 3000 foamer. I used the 7/16-bit, dish soap and channel locks with no issue. The only issue I'm having is the pressure relief valve does not activate?? I filled it with water to the 2250 line. I put 45 psi and stopped because I'm afraid that it may blow up!! Could the relief valve be defective? Even by pumping it, the valve doesn't open.
Exactly. It blowed up to me with less than 50 psi and it was very dangerous
Do you store air in your compressor or refill it every time you work on a car?
Hi. My air compressor is always filled in the shop so I can use it at any given time.
Use some silicone base grease to slide the valve through the hole
Silicone grease would not affect rubber as petroleum base lubricant does, it corrodes rubber.
Don’t use wd40 (Water Dissipation 40) it’s not a lubricant. It dissipates water, humidity, that’s what it does, after using wd40 you have to clean the parts and use some real lubricant if that’s what you want, to lubricate
Plumbers grease is the one that you want.
To check for leaks, mix soap-water, dish soap, foam it up and spread it around valve. If you see bubbles popping, that’s a leak
I would doubt that you have a leak as the grease would help to avoid that
Excellent tips!! Thanks for sharing!
Phil Great tip, especially for a DIY'r
Thanks!
Great idea! Throw a lil grease on that valve to help push in👍
Good tip!
spit or get some other type of slippery stuff on the valve stem first and it will pop right in. even a little soap. i'd like to have it set up to where i can just hook my compressor to the sprayer, carry it around and spray spray spray without stopping, unhook and bleed the air out, etc. that way i'm not always filling my pancake compressor for 30psi of air
Pretty cool. How long does a charge of air last on that sprayer? 1 car? Hi wife.
That really depends on how you're using it. for a quick app rinse you can get all around one vehicle before you need to refill. but also if you fill the bottle with too much product there isn't enough room for the air and it needs to be filled more often. lots of variables on that one.
Did this to my multi pro 2 & Marolex Axel foamer thanks for the in depth tutorial. #FTA #FORTHEALGORHYTHM
Where did you place the valve stem?
Tip: before pulling the valve thru, spray a little wd40 or foaming glass cleaner on it. It’ll slide thru a bit easier. 😁
Great tip! Thanks!
A little soapy water will help it slip in and will bubble if its leaking.
Thanks! Excellent tip!
I'm always afraid of those kind of self made alterations, but man do i want a valve on my Marolex sprayer, pumpin' is kinda lame... Thank you! Oh and Marolex is from my homeland - GO POLAND! It's the best sprayer in the world and i tested a lot..
Mind blown!
just so you know they make those schraer valves in a shorter stem length. same size entry hole.
Cool! I haven’t seen them. I’ll have to search for them. Thanks
Do you have a link? I was looking for shorter ones & haven’t found any?
Great hack, Phil👍👍🧠🤔 Love it👌👌
Cheap alternative to a rechargeable sprayer
a little soap on the valve where it meets the plastic...will pull thru much easier
Great tip! 😎👍🏼
Quality of life tip: Lube the valve stem with some dish soap when installing it.
And a battery air compressor and the job is completed.
True! th-cam.com/video/Pb8o2Hp36mE/w-d-xo.html
The tire valve is different than the schrader valve.
First
Pump it, pump it a little more. Haven't you heard technotronics song?
😂😂😂
Is it a good idea to do this hack on a bottle without a pressure relief valve? Isn't there a danger of over-pressurisation and explosion if one over-pressurises the bottle?
Correction: meant to say DON'T do this on a bottle without a pressure relief valve.
Hi yes. Very true. I wouldn’t install on cheaper bottle sprayers that don’t have a pressure valve.
@@thedetailingworkshop2689 I've just converted one of my (regulated) bottles and it works like a charm! What a brilliant idea, kudos to you Sir!
Look at the max psi and don't exceed that. Might be good to print a label with the max psi and stick it on the bottle.
You can. However these spray bottles have a release valve. I just fill it until the valve releases. It’s full and need exceeded the max. If it doesn’t have a release valve then yes, a label is good.
Why don’t the IK pump sprayers ever work
I have bought about 7 of them and they all never worked what a waste of money
REALLY? ever since I installed the valve on my small one it works great. the problem seems to be pumping them. they need constant pressure.
Send them to me. I love the IK sprayers.
