Default How I apply wax by hand

Well I was able to make this video. The purpose of the video is to show how I like to apply wax, by hand of course. The intention is to help others, keep in mind though that this method works for me it may not work for others but I'm just sharing.

The wax I chose to use for this video is Victoria (red one), I'm a big fan of Victoria, it's a great wax and it comes at a great price too.

Well hope it helps, my apologies for the download but I insist on quality and the video will show the quality, hope it's worth the wait

You make it look so effortless! Can Victoria wax be applied with a regular foam applicator too?

PS: I haven't really seen you on the last few days, I hope all is well.

Oh yes, Victoria can be applied via foam applicator no problem. In fact, depending on theclear coat, I would incurage it.

Things are well bigpoppa, just resently been moving so I was away from the forum for a few days but got the internet back up and running and well besides organizing the house/garage ect..ect..thing are going well Thank you for asking, very much appreciated.

Nice video - thanks for sharing.

Under what circumstances would you say it is better to use a foam applicator?

I used WBW which seems to be very similar but only used the palm of my hands for application and found it easier to go back to a foam pad.
