foam applicators at Big Lots

Four round, yellow foam applicators at Big Lots for 99 cents! Look for them in the paint supplies aisle.

I just picked up a package yesterday, I was wondering if they were decent quality, but I guess so. My store had probably over 50 packs of applicators.

To be honest, I don't use them on paint. They're a bit rough and when I pinch and pull them, they tear. I tried one out in the store

Good for thick gel-like dressings for trim, weather stripping, engine hoses, etc...

I don't use those kind of pads on paint either but thought I'd pass the deal on to anyone for what ever purpose they have in mind.

Big Lots for detailing stuff like that has never even crossed my mind. Stop giving me ideas Autopia!!! Wife is going to disown me. There is a Big Lots about one minute from my workplace (D'oh!).

How about in the paint supplies section: did you look for thefoam pads there? At least that's where they are in mine.

I never thought Big Lots would carry this type stuff. It's been a while since i've been there so I'll have to go check one out again and see what type of stuff they've got. Depending on the brand of applicators, I don't know if i'd use them on my paint... but i'm sure they have some stuff that could be useful. I'll post if I find any other good stuff. Thanks for the tip Bill D.
