    12, you must have gone way to thick. Waxes that are heavy in oils like Souveran, Natty's Blue, Max Wax etc, a little goes a long way and easy to apply/remove. Any of those should last at least 25-30 applications.

    you wont find anything to compare it with at its price point, and I can show you 10 others that are harder to use and more expensive. I think most should consider it per application, and at 30+ applications, isnt your cars finish worth less than a cup of Starbucks coffee ??

    didnt justin get 60 applications out of max wax? or maybe even more than that, and its pretty much the same application, same size can... it goes on very thin, you just need a light film over the top of the car

    I always did have a heavy hand. If it is not reasonably well covered, I don't feel like its had enough. To barely cover it seems like that - to barely cover it. I guess I am not finding a happy medium because after 3 uses, my Souveran is getting to be small....
    ???
    It is easy to put on and wipe off.
    I need to put up photos, but I can't take photos when there is good sun cause I work.....................
    Thoughts from anyone?

    you are using the fom applicator it comes in right? just lightly rub the top of the wax jar with it and that should be enough for atleast a panel, probably half of your hood, its usually a thin kinda clear looking film. usually i cant even tell if theres any on the applicator if that helps, you dont need chunks on there or anything lol

    Yea Kelso, I used the pad that came with the wax. No, I don't have chunks of it!! lol... It still looks pretty clear to me...I would probably rub the wax several times for the hood though...I feel like I will just swirl it further if I rub the pad without enough of the stuff....maybe that is my issue.

    circle pad around the top of the canister no more than 2 times, that should cover an entire panel. Light with quick removal before drying. When I did Ecklers I showed about a dozen people how to do it correctly. They were amazed at slickness, look, and ease of removal. They all bought the kits ... full price. Using the soap and Crystal Mist will prolong the look and feel.

    I do use the Pinnacle Bodywork shampoo - LOVE IT!
    I have the Crystal Mist, but with the price, I have switched on and off with DG AW. I really like that too.

    Wow - that did an entire panel, eh? Guess I wasted a lot. Well, bad for me , good for AG.
