    Re: Suede applicator for waxing car?

    Ah, a few Qs some to mind:

    -Waxing as in "wax on" or as in "wax off" or both?

    -Suede as is "leather" or suede as in "suede-style/non-nap MF"?

    -What`s the objective behind using this (if it`s beyond "this is what I have on-hand)?

    Generally speaking, IME waxing is the kind of job where all sorts of stuff can work- you`re just transferring product to the surface and then buffing off the residual product that didn`t bond. As long as you accomplish that without marring the surface then I`d expect no issues, especially as long as you do the "very little product, resulting in minimal excess to buff off" approach.

    I don`t see why you couldn`t. But I`m guessing it will be a little un-handy compared to a foam applicator.

    Yes, sorry before. What i mean is wax on, the type of applicator is that suede bonds in applicator, didn`t think about marring before, but thanks for the warning
