| claybaring before spray wax?
I'm thinking of picking up some ONR along with its spray wax. now can i just use the spray wax say every second car wash without claybar?
Also anybody know of any discount for big 3L jug of ONR?

You won't have to reapply the Optimum Spray wax that often. One coat is supposed to be good for 4-5 months. I was applying mine every 4 weeks or so during the winter and it stood up very well. Excellent product.

you can use it in place of a regular wax, it's the same thing
just spray it on spread it around the panel and rub it till the product disappears with an MF towel

I am already spending 77 on the ONR 3L, spray wax + claybar, maybe i should splurge on some good mf towels too? too bad icanpolish doesn't have that many choice in MF

why do anybody use the regular wax anymore than? spray wax seems so much easier to apply by hand

ok just try out the spray wax on few panels today, didn't claybar yet cause i want to see how it works and next time i wash i will do the poliseal + optiseal than spray wax to top it off.
it was already dark when i apply the spray wax so i really couldn't see the shine, but HOLY SHIT! i had so much dusting!!!!!!! and i using too much? crappy mf towel?
i though this stuff isn't suppose to dust. I try to clean it off with my ONR QD mix and didn't work.
I know the dust will come off next washing, am i doing anything wrong? do i have to rub it in like paste wax?

quick question abt using poliseal by hand. so i go in a zigzag pattern or in circles like wax?
