I'm only looking for a wax/polish applicator, I don't really like the plain circular ones tbh so might give this a whirl, only cheap too

Used the wax applicator on my old dears White Porsche, really impressed with it, very easy to grip and apply good pressure etc

Combined with Poorboys Carnuba wax, I got great results

Cheers for the excellent recommendation
