Foam Applicator Pads at Autogeek.net

Foam Applicator Pads at Autogeek.net


Below is a selection of foam and microfiber applicator pads available for applying polishes, waxes and sealants. Stock up as it's always a pain if find you're in need of a clean applicator pad and you have to stop everything and drive to an auto parts store and then cross your fingers you can find something worthy of your detailing project.


You should always use a clean applicator pad to apply a finishing wax, so inspect your applicator pads before and during use and replace when needed.

For show car stuff I would use a new, clean applicator pad. For you're own daily driver, if it looks clean use it.

Applicator pads are cheap, I always tell people to stock up on these you have one when you need it. It's real annoying to be ready to apply something by hand only to find out the only wax applicator pad you have is on the garage floor and dirty. Then you drive your car down to the local auto parts story and try to find something that's quality.

Most applicator pads only cost a few bucks at the retail level so it will cost you more in time, wear-n-tear and gas to drive to the store for just that applicator pads.

Here's a selection, pick up a few of each to try and formulate your own opinion as to which styles you like best...

Mega Applicator Combo Kit



Package of 6 Pinnacle Foam Wax Applicators



Pinnacle Polishin’ Pal Combo



Cobra Microfiber Applicator Pads



Mothers Ultra-Soft Microfiber Applicator Pads

P21S Foam Wax Applicators 2 Pack



Lexol Premium Applicator Sponges (2)

Final Step Foam Applicator Pads 2 Pack

Re: Foam Applicator Pads at Autogeek.net

Hey Mike/Autogeek -
Any chance of ever seeing the branded applicator pads again?
There were the Red Autogeek ones, Blue Pinnacle, and Orange Wolfgang ones.
They were the best value and were frequently on BOGO.

I'd love to see them come back.

I realize the yellow Pinnacle ones listed are the same thing, but the price on the others was better.

That is an awesome deal! I'll have to add it to my next order which will be coming up soon! It's been almost a month I think since I ordered anything for myself at AG. I just placed an order yesterday but it was for my father's bday.

Hey SeaJay,
I got the Mega App. Kit about a month ago and it'll last for a while, especially if your a cluts like me and drop applicators while applying Souverän paste wax and you don't wanna put any dirt in your tub.

Re: Foam Applicator Pads at Autogeek.net

I have gotten the Mega Applicator Kit twice now. If you need all the stuff included in the kit it's a great deal.

Foam Wax Applicators - Wax & sealants
Microfiber Applicator Pads - Interior Dressing, Leather Care
Safe Scrub Pad - A great Bug Cleaner
Flex Foam Tire Dressing Pads - Nice for gel based tire dressing
Wolfgang Finger Pockets - Great for applying sealants or wax to wheels.
German Polish 'N Wax Applicator - Nice for hand polishing under door handle and around mirrors.

The yellow pinnacle ones are not the same. They are thinner. I bought the red Autogeek ones (because of the logo), these are thicker.

What happened with these branded applicator pads?
