Better spray bottles clean items in fewer sprays and identify rarity faster. Here's what's actually confirmed about the progression.
Data confidence note: community wikis for this month-old game give three conflicting spray bottle naming/pricing schemes, none of which even agree on a shared milestone name. Rather than publish a guessed table, we're listing only what's actually corroborated across sources below.
| Spray Bottle | Price | Unlock |
|---|---|---|
| Starter Spray Bottle | Free | Default — every player starts with a basic spray bottle (exact name varies by source). |
Which Spray Bottle to Buy Next
Spray bottles are easy to under-invest in because shovels feel more exciting to upgrade — but a weak spray bottle means items pile up half-cleaned at your workstation, which slows your whole loop down more than it looks like. The community-wide rule holds here too: upgrade whichever tool is your current bottleneck. Several guides put spray bottle upgrades last in priority (after detector, then shovel), on the logic that finding and digging matter first — but if you're finding items faster than you can clean them, don't wait on that order; buy the spray bottle upgrade now.
Cleaning also isn't risk-free: community sources describe items occasionally "crumbling" and being lost entirely mid-clean. That specific rate is a single wiki's unverified estimate, so we won't publish a number here — just budget for the possibility rather than treating every dig as a guaranteed keep.
We'll add a verified full price ladder here once it's confirmed against a live Shop screenshot rather than conflicting wiki tables.
