        It only works with liquid. I like it but it took me two full polishes to figure out the right way to use it.

          Most carnuba's can be applied by hand without an applicator. It's a natual material and the heat from your hand works it in quite well. Just take rings off first :/

                  We don't judge here on Eurodrivers. We just ridicule.

                    Wow.. thats a lot of product. One thing I got that helps if you happen to detail at someone elses house (or bring the gear to a show) is a large golf shoe bag or trunk organizer. They have quite a few compartments to keep everything neat and tidy

                    Like this:

                    I'll get a picture of mine later...

                      I actually like those red palm applicator things, they help to apply even pressure when hand polishing. Even pressure = no holograms on black paint.

                              Picked some up last night! I like them a lot better than the Cambodian tire ones.

                                Sears has a good deal on these till Sunday. Handy little detail tool for a good price.
