I do pretty much the same thing, but I use boiling hot water to start. That helps the water, oil, and xanthan gum to mix easier. I mix it for at least 15 minutes before putting in the Avaunt (haven't tried Provaunt yet) making sure that it first has cooled down to a warm temp so as not to damage the main ingredient. Then I mix for probably another 15 minutes. Taking the strainer off the end of the zip sprayer doesn't change the fact that the sprayer mechanism has very small passageways. It only takes 1 small lump to clog, so spend extra time mixing to make sure that ALL the lumps are gone. Then mix some more.
My sprayers have lasted through about 6-8 treatments so far....
