0 Kingsford Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Carrand Brush... Gets a THUMBS DOWN.... It did not spread very well and seemed to use a lot of product. I used it with the old VRT (non-water resistant) and it just wasn't good. Probably used about 3oz for one tire and after that I just finished up with a Hex Grip. I think the Brush would be good for a spray on tire dressing but not a gel or liquid. AZGTO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya that's what I figured. Seems like more of a sprayable type deal. The spray stuff I have is too shiny for me so I stick with VRT for my Tires and SVRT for my trim.

0 The Guz Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I will have to try it again with VRT. Right now I'm testing another tire dressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 The Guz Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I bought two of these off ebay awhile ago. I have not tried these yet so I don't know they work with SVRT. They are 4". They are made by lake country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 LFairbanks Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 We are looking into increasing the size of the block sponges for a SVRT applicator. What do you guys think of that? Yay, or nay?? They used to be bigger than they are now at one time. I ordered some more a while back and they are noticeably smaller than what used to be offered.

0 sportruck00 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Just picked up a few hex applicators. Curious - do you clean your applicator from time to time to free it of excess VRT? Or are these simply good to go as a dedicated tire applicator. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep mine faced down on a paper towel in the garage in between uses and they last for quite awhile. sportruck00 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Tim Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I like to clean it out every other use to keep my hands cleaning when using. APC and hot water do wonders. An old Americana tub is the perfect size. I soak mine overnight in APC to clean it. CMDChase and mc2hill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kingsford Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I took an old gallon jug and cut off the top. Fill it with hot water and dawn and let it soak. Pulls out a lot of black gunk and then when you squeeze it out (wear gloves) it comes out as like a black gel.

0 Ricky Bobby Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 ^^^Bingo, its crazy how gunked up tire applicators can get, but nothing is more annoying than using a dirty applicator on clean wheels/tires/paint! The Guz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
