    Yes, you can apply BF One Step by hand, however machine application will work best for more difficult imperfections. That said, as the surfaces of these plastic items are more delicate, you may be best off applying the product by hand, esp. if you have little/no experience using a polisher. You can always redo it if hand application does not do the trick but you cannot undo the damage from overdoing it with a polisher.

    Start off by making sure the surface is clean. Then just follow BF's instructions for hand application :

    "To apply by hand, use a clean foam applicator to work One Step into the paint until it disappears."

    You can follow that up with a HQ microfiber towel for a final buff to shine.

    It would be difficult to get good results by hand. I use HD Polish+ and then finish it with CQuartz DLUX.
