Swissvax Concorso by hand

How are you applying it?

Applicator pad?
Bare hand?
Old shoe?

 

I refuse to apply a wax by bare hands. I prefer an applicator.

 

Applicator

 

Me too, I was excited to apply by hand when I got my VW red a few months ago, promply went and caused a deep gouge because I forgot to take off my wedding band (my fault) but even after that it did not seem efficient with the hand, during winter my hands are dry and it just seemed to use more wax.

 

Waxing by hand is for wussies with Palmolive hands. Real mens hands will put 600 grit scratches in the paint.

That's funny stuff, Chris!!!

 

Damn straight. :muscle:

 

haahahahaha I can't help it I have a paper pushing job :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

oh and I like both by hand and by applicator but the thing I enjoy about applying via hand is feeling every curve, turn, twist of the vehicle :druling: :druling:

 

i did it by hand the first time. I've been using applicators from CG

 

600 grit? more like 100 grit for me.

black pad from swissvax or red 3" wax pad from griots garage.

 

My gf said I have "girl" hands.....LOL I think the softness of my hands can help with applying wax with bare hands

 

euro ccs applicator pad from lake country.

 

P - add one to my shipment, Ill give it a go.

I try to create an unique experience for people when they come to get their car detailed. For a consumer to pay $500 and up for a serivce like this deserves the extra mile. I want them to leave feeling as if this was worht triple waht they paid.

Good write-up. Its all in the presentation. Make people beleivers.

There is a picture of me on my detailing website wearing a loin cloth and holding a spear with a big bone in my lip. Im aiming the end of the spear at one of the wild boar's on my 4000 acre ranch in New Zealand that I specially raise to make my wash brushes.

 

after reading that link, looks like im gonna go back to the hand application.

 

I'd give it a go if a customer wanted it or I saw that ti provided better coverage or results. I do think my hands may cause marring, just like I thought ONR washes did before I did one.

 

Thats what I am worried about. I some calus (sp) on my hands from working out.
