Full Description

ChemicalWorkz Coating Swabs are small foam applicators for applying sealants and coatings where a pad will not reach. The pack holds five.

Each swab has a grey plastic handle, 9.5cm long, with a permanently attached tapered foam tip 6.5cm long, 2.5cm wide and 1.4cm high. The foam is very soft, absorbent and flexible, so it can work sealant into the radiator grille, multi-spoke wheels and brake calipers. Inside the car, the soft tip also lifts dust and dirt out of corners that are hard to reach.

Expert Notes

The ChemicalWorkz Coating Swabs are a pack of five foam applicators made for applying sealant precisely in the parts of a car that towels and pads struggle to reach. Each swab pairs a grippy grey plastic handle, 9.5cm long, with a permanently attached tapered foam tip measuring 6.5 x 2.5 x 1.4cm that is soft, absorbent and flexible. ChemicalWorkz, a brand of German company Dukano GbR, lists them for radiator grilles, multi-spoke wheels, brake calipers and tight interior corners, on glass, leather, synthetic leather, plastic and paint. They belong in the protection stage of a detail, once the surfaces are clean and dry. Pair them with your chosen sealant, clean microfibre towels for levelling and larger foam or microfibre applicators for open panels.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Radiator grilles
  • Multi-spoke wheels
  • Brake calipers
  • Tight interior corners
  • Glass
  • Leather and synthetic leather
  • Plastic surfaces
  • Painted surfaces

Caution: Follow your sealant's own instructions and test on a small hidden area first. Do not use a swab on paint or glass once it has picked up grit.

How To Use

Using it

  1. Make sure the area is clean and dry before you apply any sealant.
  2. Put a small amount of your chosen sealant on the foam tip, following that product's own instructions.
  3. Use the tapered tip to work the sealant into grilles, wheel spokes, caliper edges and other tight areas.
  4. Spread the product in a thin, even layer without overloading the foam.
  5. Level or buff off any excess as the sealant's instructions direct.
  6. To clean the interior, use a fresh swab to lift dust and dirt out of tight corners.

Cleaning and storage

  1. Use a separate swab for each product so sealants do not mix.
  2. Keep swabs used on wheels and calipers apart from those used on paint or interior surfaces.
  3. Discard a swab once sealant has started to harden in the foam.
  4. Keep unused swabs in their packaging so the foam stays clean.
  5. Store the pack away from heat, solvents and direct sunlight.

Top Tip: Load the foam lightly, as a small amount of sealant is easier to spread thinly and level in tight areas.

  • Applies sealant into grilles and spokes
  • Reaches around brake calipers
  • Lifts dust from tight interior corners
  • Soft, flexible foam for careful work

Frequently Asked Questions

How many swabs are in the pack?

The ChemicalWorkz Coating Swabs pack contains 5 foam swab applicators. Each one has a grey plastic handle and a permanently attached foam tip.

What size are the foam tips and handles?

Each foam tip is 6.5cm long, 2.5cm wide and 1.4cm high, with a tapered shape for precise work. The grey plastic handle is 9.5cm long.

What are these coating swabs used for?

They are designed for applying sealant precisely in hard-to-reach areas such as radiator grilles, multi-spoke wheels and brake calipers. The tapered foam tip is shaped for the edges and gaps in those areas.

Which surfaces can I use them on?

ChemicalWorkz lists glass, leather, synthetic leather, plastic and paint as suitable surfaces, for both interior and exterior work. Always check that the sealant you are applying also suits the surface.

Can I use them to clean the interior?

Yes, ChemicalWorkz states that the soft foam tip can lift dust and dirt particles out of hard-to-reach interior corners. Keep swabs used for cleaning separate from those used for sealant.

Is the foam tip removable?

No, ChemicalWorkz states that the foam tip is permanently attached to the grey plastic handle. When a tip is worn or clogged with product, replace the whole swab.

What should I pair them with?

Pair them with the sealant you are applying, clean microfibre towels for levelling and buffing, and a larger foam or microfibre applicator for open panels.

Where can I buy ChemicalWorkz Coating Swabs in the UK?

The Drivers HQ sells the ChemicalWorkz Coating Swabs 5 pack online with UK-wide delivery. You can also visit our walk-in store in Ilkeston, Derbyshire.

HQ Suggests Tips & Insights

  1. Mask nearby trim and badges before sealing close to their edges.
  2. Work one small section at a time so sealant can be levelled promptly.
  3. Use the narrow end of the tapered tip between wheel spokes.
  4. Clean brake dust from calipers and spokes before sealing them.
  5. Have a clean microfibre towel ready to level excess product.
  6. Check your work under a good light to spot missed or uneven areas.
  7. Avoid applying sealant in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces.
  8. Order online with UK-wide delivery from The Drivers HQ.

ChemicalWorkz wash mitts, pads and clay

Chenille wash mitts. The micro chenille microfibre mitt lifts dirt away from the paint into its strands for a thorough hand wash. It measures 26 x 17cm, 80% polyester and 20% polyamide, with a black cuff, in blue, green, orange and red. Different colours make it easy to keep one mitt for paint and another for wheels.

Viscose wash pad. The Viscose Wash Pad is 24 x 17cm of 1,400gsm Korean microfibre (94% polyester, 6% viscose) around a foam core that soaks up wash water, with a narrower middle for a better grip.

Clay. The Magic Clay Bar comes as two 50g bars in Fine or Medium, for paint, glass, metal and plastic. It removes tree sap mist, insect remains, paint spatter, road tar, rail dust, overspray and industrial fallout, and the bars can be used several times. ChemicalWorkz strongly recommends a clay lubricant. The Clay Sponge replaces a bar with a polymer-coated sponge: wash and rinse the car, keep it wet, spray lubricant and glide it over the panel without pressing. ChemicalWorkz says it lasts much longer than a clay bar.

Shop by type: wash mitts and pads, clay bars and clay mitts and sponges.

ChemicalWorkz swabs, tyre brush and drying

Swabs. The Detailing Swabs set holds 10 swabs in 5 designs with foam or microfibre tips, for vents, emblems and other tight spots inside and out. The Coating Swabs are five foam applicators on 9.5cm handles with a tapered 6.5cm tip, soft enough to work sealant or coating into grilles, multi-spoke wheels and brake calipers.

Ultimate Tyre Brush. The Ultimate Tyre Brush is 28cm long, with a non-slip comfort grip and extra soft bristles for scrubbing road grime off the tyre wall.

Magnetic Stripes. The Magnetic Stripes are 1,400gsm Shark Twisted Loop microfibre strips with built-in magnets, sold as a pair, each 26.5 x 5 x 1.5cm. Place them under a door mirror or another drip point after drying and they catch the water that would otherwise run down the door and leave spots.
