    Machine is faster and leaves a much better finished product that a hand application could never acheive...my 2 cents...

    I always apply liquid waxes or AIO's by machine. I will top with Paste Glaz or Souveran by hand though

    Agreed...switched over last year.

    I find with the new LSP's consistencies and the fact that a thin coat really is better, machining gets you there just right.

    I started to wax my car this morning by hand with Collinite 915. Two wipes in I thought why am I doing this by hand? Switched to the DA and finished in no time.

    Re: How many of you use a MACHINE to WAX your vehicle?

    In my review of the responses I only see one which mentions the removal of the wax by machine. Do others use the machine for removal as well? I would assume so as it would negate some of the time saving but just was curious how people do the removal process. Apply with fine buffing/polishing pad and then remove with clean fine buffing/polishing pad?
