1. A solution storage and application system comprising:
a bottle for containing a viscous liquid solution, the bottle comprising: an arcuate front wall; generally vertical left and right side walls; an inclined rear wall; and a base; an applicator assembly constructed to mutually engage the bottle for safe storage and transport of solution therein, wherein the applicator assembly is engaged with the bottle at a mouth of the bottle that is angled relative to a base of the bottle such that the applicator assembly extends into the bottle at a non-orthogonal angle towards the arcuate front wall; wherein the applicator assembly comprises:
a handle by which the applicator assembly is to be manipulated, the handle extending from a free end to a circular flange that serves as a cap for closure of the bottle when the applicator assembly engages the bottle;a cylindrical skirt that extends from the flange away from the handle to surround the mouth of the bottle, wherein threads extend outward from the mouth and engage corresponding threads extending inward from the skirt to secure the engagement of the applicator assembly and bottle; anda ferrule that extends from the flange away from the handle, wherein the ferrule retains an applicator that extends from the ferrule away from the handle such that longitudinal ends of the handle and applicator serve as longitudinal ends of the applicator assembly; wherein dimensions of the application system are selected such that the ferrule cannot be dipped into liquid contents of the bottle in any orientation of the applicator assembly so long as the bottle is maintained in orientations that maintain the contents of the bottle below the plane of the mouth after the bottle is filled, as the base is maintained horizontal relative to gravity, to a prescribed height. |
