ABSTRACT:
A dispenser for liquid material, such as shoe polish, comprising a container (1) and an applicator (2) by means of which a small quantity of the material (P) can be removed from the container (1) by dipping and then applied to a surface to be treated with the material (P). In this dispenser the applicator (2) has a length relative to the height of the container (1) such that in the inserted position of the applicator (2) the spongy applicator end (16) is at least partially compressed against the container bottom. A tube (5) is arranged in the container (1), which tube (5) extends from the mouth of the container (1) down into the vicinity of the bottom thereof. At least the lower end of the tube (5) forms a proper fit for an applicator (2) inserted therein and the space within the tube (5) communicates through at least one passage with the annular container space around the tube (5). At least one scraping ring (7) having open passages (10) communicating with the annular container space for the applicator (2) is arranged at the top of the tube (5). The applicator (2) consists of a cylindrical portion (15) which is only slightly narrower than the tube (5) and a spongy end (16).
