The present invention is directed to a system for detecting leaks in weather-proof enclosures, such as buildings or automobile bodies, including small leaks that are active only when the automobile is driven at high speed in rain or snow. An applicator includes a chamber in between a pressurized water inlet and a discharge nozzle. A user points the nozzle at a suspected leak area in the enclosure and turns on the water supply to create a water stream through the applicator. As the stream passes through the chamber, fluorescent dye is drawn or displaced from a dye reservoir and mixed with the water. A mixture of fluorescent dye and water is thereby sprayed onto the suspected leak area through the nozzle. The interior of the enclosure is inspected with an inspection lamp to determine if the suspected leak area includes a leak.
