I've only used ours for bottled water with the cap on whilst driving. What's Sixbucks? At a guess is it a Coffee & a Donut?

LoL, sorry Chris, when my wife goes to Starbucks for coffee, it always costs her almost Sixbucks! So, that what I call it... "Hey honey, are you going to sixbucks?" I know, it's silly, but true... ;-)

I usually only spend $2.50 at Dunkin Donuts.

Here is what we use. $10 delivered if you have Prime. Fits perfectly in the SC430 cup holder. Perfect firm but not too firm fit - no shaking, sliding or tilting, and top seals extremely well for spill free driving.

Twenty seconds and a can of Dollar spray paint from Home Depot changes neon orange into flat black REALLY easily.

How well does the paint stick to the plastic?

Maybe plasti dip would be more durable?

I didn't do anything right. I didn't scuff the plastic, I didn't use primer. I just sprayed it, because I already had the can of paint out.

The paint stuck fine. I have used it about 3 weeks and there are no scratches or paint flakes. I admit, it has an easy life. I put smooth cans in, I take smooth cans out. The cup never moves, so not much to get scraped on.

I just picked up two of these from my local Dollar Tree store.

The guy there kept asking me for a product #... I told him I didn't know what the product number was, it was a water bottle!

I had brought photos of the cup, but after I eventually found it, I was thinking to myself that someone should post a photo of what the water bottle itself looks like, not just the bottom cups! Guess you beat me to it!

Took some searching around, but I did eventually find 'em!
