    Liquid or Paste Wax

    If a liquid wax and paste wax could make your vehicle look the same which would you prefer?

    Liquid of course! Since I apply glazes, sealants, and waxes with a DA polisher liquids make more sense...

    All things equal. Liquid so I can use my DA.

    Manually, I like the feel of my fav nuba on the applicator. I have never applied a paste wax with a DA even if it might be the best way to do so.

    It depends. As an AIO I prefer to use a liquid so I can use the rotary, but as a topper, there's no better feeling out there than rubbing a nice coat of paste on a vehicle with a foam applicator.

    I read alot of people like to do paste wax by hand. I always perfer using a DA polisher even with paste, it seems to be a more even application. Maybe it is just what I am used to. What about removal? I always use the DA with a microfiber bonnet over a LC green pad at a speed of 5.

    I like to use a cheap 12" random orbital IE the wax spreader for removal of liquid or paste.
