The container body has a mouth for receiving the solvent spray therein; and has a container bottom being disposed generally opposed to the mouth; and further has an inclined side portion operably coupled to and extending between the container bottom portion and the container mouth, the cross sectional dimension of the side portion decreasing from the container bottom portion to the container mouth.
