Waxing techinque, Do you work it in?

[Damnhor2]

Hey guys, when waxing, do you just spread the wax over the area evenly in a circular motion?
Or do you actually work it in like a polish (going over the same area a few times)?

There is no need to work in a non abrasive wax/sealant because they contain nothing that needs to be broken down or worked in. They are top coats and should be applied as thin as possible with very little to no pressure. Cover the area with a thin coat and move on.

I prefer to use the 7424 and let it do the work.

straight lines are better than circles ... less chance of swirls if any contamiment on paint or blows in thru open door.

Well thanks guys!
You just proved my friends wrong.
And my back is just killing me from waxing 2.5 hours!!!, they told me to break it down in small circular motions.
What a waste of time! (and wax).

wax and sealant is a wipe on wipe off process...no rubbing, no pressure....and no real need for a udm/pc either...but some use them...i use my udm for polishing, i protect by hand....
