Spilchy- my comment was only made because if you combine all the ages of the posts before my 0.02c and then add my age you’d reach high treble figures in a hurry…LOL

I talked with some of the USMC guys here at the base they still clean their boots with spit-shine and hot polish. My grandfather was in the Royal Irish Guards and taught me (RAF) how to clean and press my uniform; I think to this day he’s the one who got me started on this AR cleaning thing.

OK enough of this reminiscing… I have a mini (US version not the ‘real’ thing) to detail this week-end and I’m going to try this Wax on, wax on, wax on, wax off thing. Thanks for the insight Nick T

~Hope this helps~
