Bought three different grades of Graves diamond lapping compound spray and none of them will spray. I sprinkled very little on the strop and rubbed it in with my finger. Reckon that will be ok?
 
Maybe try taking the pump out of the bottle and soak in hot water and occasionally try to pump the sprayer? If they have been sitting a while then the spray may have dried out leaving a dusty powder in the sprayer. Worth a try if you want to use the pump sprayer.

Excellent suggestion. After cleansing the orifice, you may also wish to try vigorously shaking the contents before spraying.

I use diamond spray regularly, and so far haven't experienced difficulties with the spraying.

If these remedies fail, you may wish to contact the supplier and inquire about replacement. Graves has an excellent reputation, and I doubt they would compromise it by failing to provide good customer service.
