I have tried just about every tire dressing applicator and just couldn't find the one for me. I tried big brushes, little brushes, foam applicators of varying shapes, and microfiber towels. None of them really hit that sweet spot. They either wasted too much dressing or required too much wrist torque to get even coverage. This one... is my match! I hands the size of a small child, so it fits comfortably in my tiny grip, and the triangle point helps you get that pesky bottom section of wheel without having to move the car. The dressing doesn't soak too far in and the microfiber surface gets into the nooks and crannies just fine. It also pairs well with the Redux since it's a squirt top and not a sprayer. This is weirdly gushy over an applicator, but... give it a try. You'll like it.
