some people have asked for this so here is a video i did of how to wax by hand. Its not great, i hope to get a better one soon but it should help some people for now.



Sorry for the poor shots, i dont have a tri-pod and I did this bymyself so it was hard to get it right.

Also i applogize for my voice. i was sick and i was loosing my voice.. well anyway here we go

Nicely done, man, very nicely done. I like how you "extend" the wax... using your hand to spread it from a thick area to a thin one. Makes for a thin, even layer. You obviously have alot of practice applying Estate Glazes!

Very nicely done. You make it seem so easy and mess-free.

Is that wax easy to get off your hands after you`re done, Calgary? Do you just wash with dawn or isopropyl alcohol?

I should clarify I guess, of interest to me is Collinite 476.

no u can not apply 476 via hand

now imnot one to argue, but i would assume it could be done. There shouldnt be an ill effect, well maybe a pita to buff off, but i dont see a reason other then that.



Just my 2 cents though

So if it could be done, it probably wouldn`t be worth it. I was just curious because it looked like a quick process that worked well.
