gemini70 -since you have used LG for a long time do you apply in small areas? It says to apply in back and forth motion and so I pretty much applied it in large areas and that is what's visible when it humid in the morning. I remember this stuff back in the 60's when it was in a wildy colored striped can with a picture of a 55(?) Cadillac on it but I just never used it. I'm very happy with he results as nothing (dirt) sticks to it after one week.
I use to apply it by hand, small sections at a time, but in a circular motion. The thing was, I use to apply it, on purpose, in the early morning before it started warming up. I use to get the car 3/4 done and when it would warm up, that final 1/4 of the car took just as long to do as the first 3/4. When you apply it, and you notice a haze after wiping it off, use a terry cloth or a micro fiber cloth and wet it slightly, and wipe the haze away. The wet cloth works every time. Then sit her in the sun and let it bake!
Now that I have a Ram, I refuse to do it by hand. I now use an orbiter (sp?) and do the front end, then wipe off ( sometimes I still wipe off by hand. ), then one side, wipe off, the back end, wipe off, and then finally the remaining side. The whole truck with the orbiter takes me about 45 mins for one coat.
I also like applying two coats, one a week, and then let it go for 6 months. Any extra needed coats due to excessive rains I will throw on but not as deligently as the first two weeks.
Matter of fact, I am due for my spring-summer wax soon!
