Default Best way to wax?

Getting the car buffed this weekend, gonna start waxing w/ the wet obsession. Just wanted to get the scoop on the best way to do it, I'm quite the amateur.

I just use a round foam pad with the Wet Obsession. You don't have to use that much at all, a little bit will go a long way. Just put it on thin in a back and forth motion. You can put it on a panel and then take it right off or put it on the whole vehicle and then come back and wipe off. This is just personal preference.

Wax-on, Wax-off Danielson!

Unless your car has hairline scratches in the clearcoat I wouldn't bother with a buffer. Most of the time inexperienced people will actually do more harm than good with a buffer. They end up putting swirl marks in the clear from using too much pressure on the buffer and not moving it enough.
