You call up someone and have them wheel it out for you. Thats the best way.

O and bring at least a 24 pack.

Yes. There are several ways. One, you can pop the wax out of the container and rub it on the foam pad. Two, you can use a butter or putty knife to spread it on the pad. Three, and is what I do, is I apply the wax by hand first and then go over the car with a DA and waxing pad to even out the wax and get a smooth coat on.

Thanks for the info, but I have a couple questions if you dont mind. If I apply it by hand first wont it dry before I get to the RO buffer? And one more, what kind of pad do you recommend for doing which type of detailing? I have been only using the cloth bonnets but I have seen foam,microfiber etc.

I have a 3 pad kit from Sonus I believe. There's three colors, Orange is the hardest (for rough polish), green was the middle for mild polish, and then blue was the softest, for waxes, sealants, and glazes.

I just use Terry Towels to applicate and rub off. I bought an orbital but it didn't seem like it was any help.

I really like the microfiber clothes to take the wax off. Those are nice for sure!

Was it a random orbital, or just a regular orbital buffer? If it was a regular orbital, no wonder it didn't seem to help -- it probably put scratches in your paint.

Random orbital has the offset center on it right?
