where can I buy something like an Alta sprayer?

I would like to add a h2O sprayer for my lower Mini madness heat exhanger. I can't seem to find one anywhere. I would love it in metal. Where does Alta get them from or do they make them?

something like this?


http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/ab_eng...231973,00.html

they used co2 but you could do a switcharoo and run it into the nozzle up front that goes to your rear sprayer

edit:
the more i think about it the simpler it is... you just need to create the sprayer/nozzle setup. the rest is done by the pump that's already on your car. that's how the current ALTA sprayer is.. it's just a nozzle and a hose

Thanks Glen but that might be a little much for me. I really just want like a .5-.7mm nozzle

Home Depot sells them for gardening sprayers I believe (plastic). The Subaru guys do an IC spray for about $5 in parts. MINI owners are lucky that we have two washer tanks so we can fill one with something other than the blue stuff

here's another solid solution - click

seems a farm store like Tractor Supply would also be a good place to check.
