I was in the garage, using a high quality application pad, and an electric buffer. Excellent results.

 

[Protege5Gurly]

If you want to spend the $ get a D/A (Dual Action) Polisher -- that way its basically impossible to burn/scratch your paint.

[BOOSTR]

I use either squares or my high speed buffer with different foam pads. Always apply it to a cool, clean surface.

Probably not what you are looking for here, but I use the car wash and always spring for clear coat protectant or wax. Lazy, lazy, lazy.

 

[jersey_emt]

I apply in circles, but wipe off/buff in lines.

How about Meguirs Gold Class? Do you use the regular Meguirs wax first, THEN apply Gold Class, or straight to Gold Class?
