Apply wax with a super soft pad on an orbital buffer. you'll never look back.
You'll use less product, which means it drys faster and is easier to remove. Inadditoin to the fact that you get more value out of your bottle / tub of wax.
best of all you don't get a sore arm
+1, even the cheapy 6" buffer at Walmart is better than doing it by hand. Put on the supplied foam bonnet then pour some of the liquid sealant on the pad. Spread with a plastic card (like a rewards card) so it goes on evenly. Or just use your finger. Go over entire car. Switch to the suppied microfiber bonnet for removal. Let the polisher and wax/sealant do the work.
A few more tips, wipe car down with ipa (rubbing alcohol) first before applying the sealant so the surface is squeaky clean. Then the sealant can bond to the paint better. Let sealant cure for 24 hours with no moisture. So put the car in the garage. Doing this should almost double the durability of the product. Have a detail coming up this weekend.
After every panel I'll take an old toothbrush and fluff up the mf bonnet while turning the machine on.
