    I prefer by hand. Ive never used a DA. I heard If you dont use it right you get swirl marks.

          For me, by hand also. There is just something 'special' when it comes to waxing by hand. However, this doesn't mean I'm against D/A's!

            I generally like to wax by hand but sometimes I will use the DA.

              I feel more comfortable by hand, gives me more control.

                  When I have been using DA for something else, I apply at least my first coat via DA. It's fun and easy.

                  If I'm not using DA for something else, I just put it on by hand.

                      DA is so much easier, it's what I use now. But in the hard to get to areas, by hand is always fun...

                        Has anybody ever actually applied wax with your HANDS NO APPLICATORS? I heard it works better with paste waxes because the heat from your hands softens the wax.

                          Of course by hand in hard to reach places. Otherwise d/d. Even application, much faster.
