Ah thanks, yes I have those, but in yellow. I use them for applying tyre shine. They are not a patch on the nano ones.

The yellow ones are different I believe.....not as soft

These are very soft..The best I've used

Other than the colour, are they not the same?

Different type foam on the red ones Bob.

Softer, and more dense. Worth trying mate...

Ah ok, thanks for that. I think I'll stick with the Nano ones, I have quite a few left, I also like to support UK shops.

No worries Bob!

 

Order placed with Marco this morning; he said he would throw in a couple of samples

of the shampoo and snowfoam 100ml concentrates. 

Order arrived today - top service Marco. Thanks for freebie samples of the Nano Pro Shampoo and Microfibres. 

 

The MF applicators are surprisingly nice - looking forward to doing some glass work and leather cleaning with those.

 

How long will that lot last you?  LOL

Nice one, they are great, let me know your thoughts on the shampoo please

Cheers Bob - will do mate; it's on the list of freebies to test at some point.... when i get the sponge out!

Lol, genius.

BTW - a few guys on OCD were asking for a comparison on the applicators.... so i did these pics to illustrate.....

 

Cheap chinese pads, Nano Pro (foam+MF), plus my current applicator of choice in red - as i recommended on here some time ago 

 

Chalk n cheese as they say, I'm well chuffed with them & they wash great too.

No idea actually mate. But the applicators are not all for me in the first instance.

 

Before ordering - i agreed with a couple of detailing buddies to split the pack/cost.

 

Job done!

Absolutely mate. The Nano Pro foam pad feels really good.... and the MF pad feels superb too

The new thick yellow ones do look good ste, if you have any of those and the reds going spare I'd like to try some?

Ive just ordered some more red thick ones from Mr. Chan in HK

They are the best Ive used by some margin

I give one away with every Detail together with the statutory Air Freshner

Sure thing Carl - i'll provide a sample of each mate; when you pop over to collect the pads etc.

Brilliant thanks ste, I'm in hospital tomorrow and Friday all day but hopefully might get to you at the weekend?

No rush Carl. As always - your stuff is set aside and waiting. Whenever you are feeling well enough to get out and about....Take care.

Just caught up on this thread whilst on the sun lounger in Florida. Is that sad??

Cheers for the links etc Ste I shall be popping over to Nano Pro seeing as it's only in Ilkeston. Need some microfiber applicators for my Sonax P&S!

Nice one Ben!

I caught your Ice bucket challenge over there.

It's a hard life mate..... LOL.

Have a good one.

Certainly happy to recommend for you, and glad you took up my recommendation on the red ones.

They are very good quality foam, wash well and and are lasting well.

 

Good idea on a gift for customers - i was also thinking a little wash/detailing starter kit might be of interest to some customers too (at a small fee of course)! 

Just thought i'd mention guys - Marco at Nano-Pro is doing an early clearance sale.

Upto 70% off  from this coming weekend - for old stock, end of line stuff, etc.

 

There might be something of interest....
