Kris do bring up a good point on Smartwax ..it does comes with mild detegent hence better apply Smartwax as 1st layer, then smart sealant ... then SIA as final. I tested with diff session and try to notice the water sheading and beading and prove him right.

blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif Did I??? Anyway....I think M16 also has some cleaning properties...but in the form of the solvent it uses...very mild....very very mild...very very very mild...

Anyway....OOT a bit...there's a new local online store selling Smart products and they describe SmartWax as a wax and polish...no wonder laaaa...I wonder if there's a difference between the ones Darren's selling........

Regards.

Hello again,
I just want to inform that it's quite difficult to buff up the wax after application.Maybe it's the carnauba hehe...
But satisfied with the result,really mirror-like ekeke...

Shut the f**k up,learn to buck up!

The secret with paste/hard wax is to apply it very very thin, hence the purpose of misting/damping the applicator pad so that the wax would spread better and thinner. It would be very easy to remove if applied sparingly. Once you get the hang of it, it would be a very fun outing with your beloved...... laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

But some waxes that I have used, if mix with water it is harder to remove when buffing. therefore I always try to apply as sparingly as possible but neat, means no mixing with water.

I think there are many different ways to do it. You will have to experiment and try and that is what we do....

Sir,
How do I avoid the 'swirl' mark when buffing?
Using hand motion.
Had the swirl mark on my last ride.... sad.gif sad.gif

The swirl marks probably from your washing. Normally no swirls when buffing....
