    Question: Cleaning Kits (AR cleaner + Cloth)

    I am looking into making a custom cleaning kit.

    Is it cost effective to make your own bottle and label? Or have pre-made bottles imprinted from Hilco, Amcon, 1800Optisource, etc.?

    I find that the labels from the companies are lacking in style. Custom labels would emphasize what I want.

    Does anyone know of a good source for empty clear 2 oz spray bottles?

    Thanks in advance.

    Depending on the quantity that you are looking for many manufacturers will customize the label for you. I would explore that route rather than trying to "make" my own bottles of cleaner.

    I have aprox 500 bottles and spray tops. If interested e-mail. I used to bottle my own and it worked well for me. I closed my store and have no more use for them.
