I use one bucket method.

2 gallons ONR solution with 15+ microfiber washmitts and towels in the bucket. After using the washmitt/towel, I throw it away(to the washing machine).

Any feedback on ace microfiber applicator pad? (The orange one)

Any feedback on ace microfiber applicator pad? (The orange one)

makapal sya kaya most of the liquid is absorbed by the foam. tsaka in the middle of the work, medyo mahirap na sya ipahid kasi yung dumi dumidikit sa mf ng pad.

boss retz...yung sa microtex ba na purple? Meron ako pero di ko gaano ginamit. hirap ako ipang apply sya. for 1, hirap sya ipasok sa lata ng wax and i rotate para kumapit yung paste. tapos 2nd, hirap din ako hawakan sya when applying na sa kotse since tendency ko multiple straight strokes and massaging the product sa surface kaya talagang matigas yung grip ko sa kanya unlike yung sa ace na may pocket sya to insert yung kamay mo.

Yes sir, ung purple. Bumili din ako nun before. Hindi naman mahirap nung pina apply ko. Meron din sa Mr. Clean ung wax applicator na dilaw na bilog which comes in 3 pax.

How about maintaining the sponge applicator pads? Wash after every use ba?

I find the microtex applicator pad softer than ace. But haven't tested both yet. Check muna for feedbacks as i cant search any for ace microfiber applicator pads.

I like this applicator for liquid waxes and sealants - no problems getting product out of a bottle into the pad, and the suede fabric doesn't absorb as much product as a regular foam applicator. I do prefer foam applicators for my paste waxes, though.

I personally use this only for my paste type LSPs. You need to wash these after waxing to prevent the wax from drying up on the applicator and hardening the fibers.

I use these when I want a bit more bite with my application, mainly with cleaner waxes/AIOs or when hand-cleaning glass with Mother's Waterspot Remover or Microtex Glaz Stain Out .
