    I use the af ones and love them....thanks to the Guz who recommended them a while back.

    ^^^^ I agree that the AF applicators are legit. I use them religiously.

    As opie said, one annd done for coatings. I have ones specifically marked for sealants and use those many times….. maybe a year.

    I was them out by hand and reuse for same sealants.

    Use them for tire dressings and coatings also

    I’m not sure what they’re made of since I’ve never seen them and this is the 1st I’ve heard of them…

    But are they normal microfiber foam applicators? If so I’ve got these that I’m in love with. They’re from the 99cent only store so you can get 12 for $6. [they come in 2pk]




    I use them for all kinds of stuff. Applying sealants/wax, polishing glass, interior protectant, leather conditioner, dressing exterior trim, polishing metal, everything.

    They’re so cheap that they’re nearly disposable but I do have a couple of plastic bags full of the dirty ones which I’ll get around to washing every now and then and use those for dirty jobs. They work great and don’t scratch paint.

    Treat it like it's the only one in the world.

    Dude I cringe when it comes to ruining microfiber/applicators that cost good coin.
    There’s nothing better than finding quality at a cheap price when it comes to these sort of things.

    For example there’s a certain name brand that sells this exact microfiber applicator for $9 but you can literally get the same exact applicator for $1 at HF.
    The only difference is these are Blue and the $9 one is Green. Lol.

    These ones have a plastic barrier between the MF and sponge. Doesn’t soak up products, especially thinner products like coatings.

    Saves me on them and the overpriced toppers i use.

    That’s cool. I can see how they’d work for coatings.
