Way less than half of the time but still occasionally use a machine for liquid waxes.

For me it really depends on the wax. I enjoy spreading Souveran by hand, but turn to a DA for spreading BlackIce since it wipes off far easier the thinner and more evenly you lay it down.

[Mr. Gloss]

I always apply and remove by hand.

It`s good to keep the body moving at my age. And it burns calories.

[JSFM35X]

I am a machine. please fix poll so I can vote

[Zelfiris]

Never used a machine for wax. All LSP by hand

[Stokdgs]

I hate the idea of using a pad that will now be saturated with the stuff, the pad holds more stuff in it than you will use, and you probably waste a certain amount of product each time.. And then, well, you now have to clean it all out of the pad..

A yellow round foam applicator is much easier to use and throw away than a pad that costs almost $10 or so, right ??

I have started using a machine to apply my liquid waxes and sealants. It is just so easy to do with a gold LC pad. For paste waxes I always do them by hand.

I voted "half the time" but I probably use it more often than that. Note that I use it almost exclusively with *paste* waxes. Yeah, still have to do the tight spots by hand, also the trim that I LSP (better control and a lighter application), and yeah I find that it wastes a bit of product compared to doing it by hand. I do get (*very*) slightly better/different results though.

I also use a machine (with MF bonnets) for the majority of the LSP buffing-off.

[RaysWay]

I`m really interested in seeing these results...

[Bunky]

95% of the time.

[philliptmurphy]

Always hand apply the LSP myself.

[glen e]

All the time now with a griots cordless...just so damned easy.....

[Ronkh]

Liquids 50/50

Tried with paste once. I liquefied the wax while trying to load the applicator kicking the machine on and off

Will probably try again, since I see a lot of people using it for synergy.

If it comes out of a jar I do it by hand. If it`s a liquid out of a bottle it goes on by machine
