I purchased the twins and did it the first time by hand. I am ready to apply the second coat of sg. I know that I can apply AIO with a orb. buffer, but has anyone used one with SG? Or is it easier to do by hand. It's not a PC, just a normal one from pep boys.
 
Definitely do it by hand if your only other option is a PepBoys buffer. SG needs to go on thin and its easiest to "wipe" it on. You don't need to rub or use any pressure. Just wipe it on thinly in straight lines and you'll be fine. SG takes some getting used to and if you apply it too thick then you will not like it as much when it comes time to buff it off.
 
Yeah, I REALLY try to do as much as I can by machine, but generally it's a lot easier for me to get thin, uniform SG coverage by hand. I've done it by PC quite a few times, and there's always some place where I have to use a little QD to get it off (not a big deal, really). I'm gradually giving up on the PC application, even did the MPV by hand last time. If you have shoulder problems, that's different. I don't think the Pep Boys buffer would work out very well.
