I usually do LSP sealants by hand but can use the PC ... how is it for product waste that way?
 
Have done the last three cars with #21. Just finished one earlier today and about to start another one. Its great stuff and as atticdog said, its easy to use. The one I did today was with pc and I'm probably guilty of using too much.
 
I love this stuff, i polycharged mine like a guy did on here and never looked back. If you like it give it a shot of your PolyCharger and it looks even better.



Easy on and off, i can work much faster using one of the square MF applicators with this product as it glides on the surface.

Do you have any shots of the polycharged side vs the regular side? I have polycharged and understand that it adds to durability, but have never scene any difference in looks. And I believe when the OP was saying "PC" he was referring to Porter Cable, not PolyCharge.
 
21 is very easy to use, compare to say #16 or NXT, and it looks friken awsome on sliver. And I wouldn't use it on trim and rubber, I only apply 303 or hyper dressing to those areas.

Didn't plan on using it on rubber etc .. I was asking if it will stain it like cheap wax .. or do I need to mask it off..
 
If it gets on rubber, while it off before it cures. If it goes on textured plastic, clean it off ASAP. #21 is very persistant. Good for a sealant. Not so pretty when it is on black trim. Having said that, I use #21 on my wiper arm's black paint and on the headlights as well.
 
Make sure you allow plenty of time before wiping off and plenty of time in between coats. That will take care of any streaking issues. I allow about 30 minutes after application before wiping off and another 30 minutes before round 2. I have recently been waiting 12 hours between coats on my personal cars. I can't tell any difference between that and just waiting 30 minutes. The only issue I had with it streaking was on a Red Vette I did recently. I think it had more to do with not getting the #7 completely off though as it's the only time I have had any problems with it.

Also, as others stated it spreads like crazy. #21 is my favorite LSP and I have yet to be dissapointed with it. Enjoy!
