Evo oil sprayer bottles come in three sizes – 8 ounce, 16 ounce stainless steel, and 18 ounce. The unique fan pattern of the hand-pump oil sprayer is perfect for oiling a baking dish or lightly oiling foods such as French fries for preparation in your air fryer. Each pump dispenses approximately 1.35 milliliters of oil. You can also use your sprayer with vinegar to add a splash of flavor to salads and more.
