How to apply wax?

[rufustfirefly]

Hi,

I normally use AG SRP and then AG EGP after, but now I've decided to add a bit more bling and have bought some Collinite 915.
Question is, the instructions aren't that clear - do I put on thinly, then buff off? Thicker? Leave for a while ?
Also, how many coats of EGP and 915 should I use ?

Collinite doesn't respond well to being applied thickly - it can be the devil to buff off. Thin layers work best.

How many layers? How much time do you have?

You ought to leave the wax to go off between coats unless you're spit shining, so I tend to stop after two coats. I would think that there's little point applying more than three or so.

Hi !
Never heard of collinite myself.
I usually put on a coat of AutoGlym SuperGlym, although I think it is something you would have to get from an AutoGlym stockist, and then a coat of SupaGuard.
You are always better putting a few light coats of this instead of one thick coat.
Put it on too thickly and it is hard to take off and also it leaves a lot of chalky residue after you polish it off.
Best place to get SupaGuard, if you dont know anyone in the trade, is off Ebay.
Hope this helps.
Mark.
