The "Applicator Pad" does the job perfectly. The gel thinly and grease the tire in order. The hands stay clean, thanks to the plastic enclosure. The enclosure has a small frame, so that the hands do not slip toward Tyre.
A little problem there in fine stripes / slats on the tires. The pad is it not resilient enough. Ie in this fine grooves penetrate the frost angel very slowly to a no.
But I do not know if you can call it a defect in the Product, for if the sponge elastic or softer, would suffer with safety durability under.
The pad is very robust and has survived some tires Maintain harmless.
Conclusion: I am very satisfied because 4.5 stars is not possible, I admit. 5
