Either the megs foam applicator or the MF applicator both work well.

This is a multiple answer thread!

All depends what I'm applying!

If I apply AIO and/or EX, then it's applied with the PC. If it's a topper such as P21S, I use the provided foam applicator and do it by hand!

I use el cheapo terry cloth applicators I get from my local Dollar General. They come in a two-pack for $1.00 (50 cents each).

Depends on the wax I'm using. When I use P21S I use the foam applicator that came with it. When I'm using Optimum it's spray on so there's no applicator used per se. When I'm using Zymol I use my bare hands to apply the wax.

How do you do this, I have never been able to apply wax with my hands without scratching the he11 out of my paint?

Hey true, where do you get your terry towels? I cant find none of good quality anymore.
Sorry for the interruption with the thread. Carry on.

I use foam for last step products no matter if it's wax or sealants. Nothing betas them for thin even coats of product. MF apps waste too much product and does not apply as even a coat. I use MF applicators for pre wax cleaners like AIO or Vanillas Moose. They have some more bit than foam but don't mar like terry apps can.

I guess it depends on what I'm doing. For one step waxes, I prefer a white LC pad on the PC. For hand application of waxes and sealants, I like the Viking Handi-Grip Applicators. They are easier to hold and the foam doesn't absorb a ton of product.

On high end carnauba (Zymol) I use my hand. The wax is so pure (read hard) that your hand warms it(melts) and you just use your hand. But for paste wax I will use terry applicator and for liquid I will use foam.

I use a PC for everything liquid except Klasse SG. For that I use a microfiber applicator. For paste waxes I use foam applicators.
