An apparatus for dispensing liquids or viscous fluids, especially ABS and PVC type cement, includes an upwardly opening container having a large externally threaded mouth that communicates with an interior of the container. A downwardly converging well is positioned in the mouth and has a hole extending through a lower end thereof so that the well communicates with the interior of the container. The well acts as a funnel when the container is filled. An elongated brush or other applicator member is adapted to be inserted through the hole in the well and has an upper handle portion, a lower applicator and an intermediate enlarged intermediate portion that engages the portion of the well defining the hole to cover the same. An internally threaded cap screws over the mouth of the container and has a large central opening that communicates with the well. A clasp on the cap holds the handle portion and presses the enlarged intermediate portion of the applicator member against the well to thereby seal the interior of the container. This minimizes the escape of harmful vapors from the interior of the container and prevents spillage of the contents thereof if the container is accidentally tipped over.

An apparatus for dispensing liquids or viscous fluids, comprising: an upwardly-opening container having a mouth that communicates with an interior; a downwardly converging well having an upper end that extends across substantially an entire width of the mouth and having a portion defining a hole extending through a lower end thereof so that the well communicates with the interior of the container; elongated applicator means adapted to be inserted through the hole in the well and having an upper handle portion, a lower applicator and an enlarged intermediate portion with a lower rounded end configured to engage the portion of the well defining the hole to cover the same; and cap means removeably mounted over the mouth of the container and having an opening therethrough sized to expose a substantial portion of the upper end of the well and including portions defining a clasp recess sized positioned for receiving the handle portion of the applicator means so that it can be releasably snapped into the recess with the intermediate portion therebelow, the distance between a bottom of the clasp recess and the portion of the well defining the hole being less than a length of the intermediate portion such that the cap means provides a compression force on the intermediate portion to press the intermediate portion against the well, whereby the interior of the container will be sealed to thereby minimize the escape of vapors from the interior of the container and spillage of the contents of the container will be prevented if the container is accidentally tipped over.
