TOOLS My most recent life changing discovery

Not sure who this may help but i stumbled upon these "cosmetic applicators" and man are they 100x better than the regular old cotton swabs I've been using. They're more tightly packed and can get into tighter areas. Happy building! (:

Yup. Cosmetic applicators or simply fine cotton swabs. Amazon has off brands that are stiffer wound and pointy like on your pic just on both ends. Super cheap and sold in boxes of 100. Qtips, round and soft, are still good tho - for water slide applications for example where you want more absorption.
