I really like the Lexol terry applicators. I use them for almost everything - leather cleaner/cond, vinyl, rubber and hand polishing (only recently got a PC). I think the only thing I don't use it for is for wax (foam). I have tried some of the terry applicators availble in places like walmart, target and autozone, and none are any good.

My problem is that the lexol don't seem to last very long.

I am looking for a good alternative that will last a little longer. These are primarily for interior use - now that I have a PC, I'm using it for the exterior. Oh, and before it is asked, I have found the interior products are harder on the lexol... my exterior pads (I have been using the round ones for the exterior) seem to last much longer.

Are the Zymol Pre-Wax App pads worth it? At 8 bucks for 2, they would have to last twice as long to be worth it over the lexol. How about the Detailer's Choice? Pinnacle? What about MF Apps for interior use? If so, which ones?
