Looking for polish applicator pads
I have a VW Eagle 1 leather care kit that came with an awesome foam applicator pad that i used for waxing and it is perfect. It's dark grey and maybe 3.5 inches in diameter. my question is does anyone know where i might find more applicators like these for a reletively inexpensive price? I've checked Autozone and all theirs are turtle wax or something similar that is foam covered in cotton terry, but i'm planning on using zaino and i just feel that the foam doesn't absorb like the terry covered applicator. Any help would be cool.

I use the foam ones from CMA, they are Cheep and work great for my Zaino

if you need to find some locally...
I recall someone mentioning that they swear by the gray Viking brand ones sold at some Autozones but you had a peek there already. I picked some Meguiar’s pads up at the local Kragen, really like them. They are disc shaped and 4.25” diameter and don't soak up a lot of product.

ok, i remember seeing the vikings at autozone. i just didn't jump on em cuz they were huge compared to the little dinkers that i currently have. Guess i'll just wear these out and then get some from autozone. also, any guess as to how long i can rinse out an applicator and reuse it?

Pads? Need some pads? I like the ones CMA has. And Eagle One and Meguiars has good ones at fair prices, too.

Hye Brad.. thats a really nice box to store all the applicators, and a nice little sign as well..
Where did u buy the box, and did you make the Applicator sign yourself?Mine: 1996 Nissan Pathfinder SE 4 coats Final Polish and 1 coat S100 (VERY nice stuff. will see how durable)

I really like both foam and microfiber applicator pads. Foam saves the most product for waxing but it doesn't provide sufficient “oomph” for paint cleansers or polishes. Microfiber applicators do, but are usually more expensive. Try both and see which one you like more...

[edit] I just checked YoSteve's site, and now you can try 2 foam and 2 MF applicators for $6.99 with free shipping. It's a great deal... http://www.yosteveshop.homestead.com/order.html [/edit]Last edited by BW; 04-09-02 at 07:25.

I get the bins at a store called Containers and More. It's a store that specializes in organizing boxes, shelves and such. They are found everywhere.
I make the tags myself, print 'em and laminate them.
Not shown are backing pads I have that reinforce pads when I want more "oomph" behind pads. They work great!My Stable, The Sanctuary and lots of car pictures!.
