I've been using 3M black foam waffle polishing pads at work sometimes to apply glaze. Works pretty good, but they get gummed up sometimes. Once you use glaze with these pads they don't really wash properly, so you can't use them for SMR anymore with is their designed use...

I'm wondering what I can use to apply glaze that is easy to use (ie no marring/hazing) and inexpensive. The 3M pads are $30 for a set of 2 (my discounted cost), so something cheaper and available to find easily.
