sorta of an old school way, but a little elbow grease and the results are well worth it. much more rewarding than liquid.

Paste waxes tend to last longer thanliquid waxes and generally add more depth. I like to use both, really just depends on what kinda mood I'm in. You want a wax that goes on easy and comes off easy.Some pastewaxes you have to let haze and others you can take off right away.You don't want something that has the white residue. Most paste waxes are pretty hard. Carnauba is actually really hard, they add solvents so you can actually apply them.

I like to use foam applicators when I apply waxes. The foam doesn't soak up product like a terry cloth or microfiber applicator. With the foam your products will actually go further.

you can even use a dual action polisher to apply paste wax.
