Abstract

A translucent tank carries along its bottom portion, a pair of transversely extending spaced parallel wick pads which are removeably received in and protrude from recesses in the bottom portion. A handle is pivotally connected along one side of the tank and has control button, both of which control a spring loaded dispensing bar on which are carried resilient valve members which close and open discharge tubes of the tank. A drain tube can empty the contents of the tank to discharge liquid in front of the wick pads. A kick bar releases latches which hold the handle in a transport position with respect to tank. Wheels at the front of the tank permit the handle to tilt the tank for transporting from place to place.
