Here is a nifty little device that car owners should have to maintain the overall quality of your car. Autoglym’s ‘Perfect Palm’ is a lightweight, ergonomic device for the application of cleaning and polishing products which ‘self-grips’ to the fingers of the hand, delivering exceptional performance with minimum physical effort.

The Perfect Palm concept, in development since 2004, is available from launch in two versions. The Perfect Palm Applicator (colored red) features a foam pad which evenly and efficiently delivers cleaning products to a car’s bodywork, glass or upholstery. The surface of the Perfect Palm Microfibre (in blue) leaves an exceptional streak- and smear-free finish.

The durable, malleable Perfect Palm devices are covered by 34 UK patent applications and four international applications into all major global markets.

Autoglym’s Perfect Palm devices are available from automotive specialist retailers and independent outlets, with a recommended retail price of £5.99 each. Visit autoglym.com/perfectpalm for more information on the Perfect Palm range and to find the nearest stockist.
