    I see the opposite. Foam applicators or the brushes suck it up. The saver’s barrier keeps it on top.

    I find I use about half (1 to 1.5 pumps) per tire. I was using 2 plus with the foam I tried. The brush soaked up to much with TWGATC so I haven’t tried directly applying with the brush now. Just leveling.

    Re: Tire Dressing Applicators

    Product Consumption Aside, I do like the styrofoam blocked Microfiber.
    The MF material and the Firm Block allows me to scrub the dressing in certain sidewalls...that has all sorts of nooks and crannies. It's also firm enough for me to level it as the final pass without needing a towel to do it. Unlike a softer material (brush or foam), I still need to use one of those to get in the area where the bead meets the wheel (my use case is mainly low profile rubber).

The smaller size will be perfect for lower profile tires.

    I've bought from Carzilla before but shipping to the US is a bit pricey if I'm only placing a small order.
    Mine arrived today with a bit of an issue. They come in a plastic bag inside of another thicker plastic bag and the whole thing is then vacuum sealed. Someone at the factory ripped open the inside bag, took 2 of the 6 applicators out, and then vacuumed sealed the whole thing.

    Replacements are already on their way.

    Re: Tire Dressing Applicators

    Well I'm happy to be wrong. The applicators were so compressed due to the vacuum sealing that it only looked like two were missing. They've been out on a table expanding for the last couple of hours and to my surprise all 6 are there.

  10. Thanks noorth thanked for this post
