Let's revisit the paint brush technique

[hoyt66]

I know ppl use a short pile brush for tire dressing. I think it's a good idea but maybe I'm approaching the wrong way. I use WG Black diamond dressing. I put a little in a cup but it

seemed a little messy and I think I'll try foam pad to apply and spread with the brush. Any suggestions?

Yeah, a broad foam "paint brush" on a stick from a paint store. They are about $1.50.

Swanic,

I I like the brush because it can get in the vertical line of my tires. I can see where these would be good though.
Thanks

These are also great (in various widths) for applying interior dressing to various parts of your dash where its hard to reach or apply evenly.

I like to foam tire swipes for the tires. I cut them shorter for low profile tires

Hit up a dollar store for those foam paint brushes on a stick. Dollar Tree has the 10 pack of the one pictured in assorted sizes for $1.00. Also Dollar General has a 10 pack with a more sturdy wooden handle for $2.00 if i remember correctly.
