    Something old is new again

    Is that how the saying goes? Anyways, ive tried every towel I have for spreading a couple different sio2 spray products and havnt been terribly satisfied with that aspect of application. The clutch from Shine Supply spreads better then C2V3, although after im done touching c2v3 and it sets for a couple mins it gets pretty slick. Who cares at that point.

    By accident I was in a container that had some stuff in it that I had put away and my eyes caught this thing.




    I bought this thing from Autopia probably 10 years ago, and I wasnt sure why it was in that container as I liked using it with Z8 and optiseal. Not as much as my DF Concours towel, but it was close.

    I washed my ride and tried all of the sprays I have with it and it was so much nicer to use then a towel. Better then the edgeless, better than that bad arse towel in the pic, anything.

    Thought Id share.

    I dont think the one I have was marketed as a wash product, it was a QD thing, and it worked great. As you can see opti seal transferred black crap onto it from my trim.

    ...not that opti seal is a qd

    I have one of those bone wash sponges that I use with ferrous removers on wheels.
    Also good for getting into barrels of the wheels

    I still have a couple of the Z applicators that were actually from DF Towels was such a good product.

    Anyone remember that gold one in this pic? I think it was from Autopia again 10 years ago.

    Hi this is my first post/question - I have looked on the store and can not find the Concours Buffing Towel on the store (or anywhere else). Is it still available?

    Thank you.

    I am pretty sure the gold one is a Sonus applicator pad. I have a few laying around.
