The Black pads are very versatile pads, I use them anywhere from applying a finishing polish, a glaze, sealant or liquid wax. When I'm ready to replace the black pads I'm using now, I will now pick up the Blue Pads for sealants and waxes, just because they need as little bite as possible.

Have you tried anything like Meguiars ScratchX or 3M Swirl Mark Remover? Both can be found locally if you didn't want to place an order for products.
Keep us posted on how you make out.

Hey George how you doing? as you know were getting pretty nice weather this weekend so im planning on doing a detail on my G just like everyone else here in NYC lol. my question this time is about my interior. Now i have always kept the Pine trees in my car and its always smelled great (black ice or new car smell are my favs) besides having the Pine trees hanging around do you suggest anything else to keep the interior fresh and smelling good all the time? also to clean/wipe the leather materials i use the traditional Armor All Leather wipes. I usually vacuum the rugs once a week too.

For the leather I usually just wipe down with damp cotton towel and immediately buff dry. I try to avoid over applying products on my leather, but religiously follow a maintenance routine with Leatherique.
Enjoy the weekend!

George,
do you recommend applying P21S Wax only "by hand" ?
If not, can this product be applied with a Lake Country Blue Pad ?
Also, can FMJ be applied over Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze ?
thanks,
Dave

I have seen some people carve out the wax from the jar and spread it on a buffer pad similar to like how you'd use a glue stick. For what its worth, I just stick with the hand application.
You can layer the FMJ over High Gloss Sealant Glaze if desired. They are both acrylic sealants so do not have any issues bonding, especially when the Klasse is the bottom layer of the sealant. I may not necessarily recommend the opposite (HGSG over FMJ) but what you outlined is perfectly fine.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

George,
great info. !!
...but here are some additional questions:
How do you recommend applying the P21S Paste Wax ?
In a back-and-forth method or in a circular-motion method ?
...or does it really matter ?
Also, are there any other Wax Applicators that you prefer ??
...and who wins this "battle" ?
Zaino vs. Klasse ??
thanks again,
Dave
