I don't bother using a sprayer anymore.
I just keep a bottle of Ecover on me and squirt it neat directly on the brush.
Usually as the brush is already wet I scrub with the water off and the Ecover will foam up.
Then I give it a scrub while rinsing.

If you get a 500ml bottle of coke. Cut the neck off so you are left with 3/4 of the bottle. That is the correct dilution of neat ecover to 5 litres. I use  a sprayer and have the solution already made up.

If you're gonna do it like that why not just empty 3/4 of a 500ml bottle of Ecover into the 5 ltr sprayer instead of bothering to use a cut down bottle of coke?  ???
