I guess we're both old-fashioned, then.

I have a few old squeeze bottles used for bike chain lube or similar -
I just stick a little flexible tube onto the tip and direct the
solvent/oil where it needs to go, in the case that the tip can't reach
where I'm headed.

Also, the newish contect lens cleaner bottles ( the kind with the red
"don't put this shit in your eye, dumbass" tip) make dandy dispensers.
 Getting the fluid of choice *into* those bottles is a challenge, but
I have big syringes with large-bore needles for this purpose...
