    Applicator for SSR1?

    Hey: Is the poorboys PVA foam aplicator a good choice for hand application of SSR1?
    I don`t have a PC. Is there a better choice?
    Thanks.

    I think a MF applictor would be a "better" choice, as it would have more bite to it, but not as much as a terry applictor.

    I only have Terry applicators, foam pads, and PVA`s.
    I was planning on following with EXP.
    If I used the Terry would I need a step betwen?

    I wouldn`t use an applicator pad...those are for waxes and sealants...if you have a good finish then apply with a sturdy mf cloth, if you are trying to work out problems, then use a cotton towel..

    How about a MF on the good areas, only switching to Terry for the problems.
    Then MF over that.?
    Would that work? Leave a finish ready for Sealant?

    Cotton diapers are another option ... I would rate them between a MF and a Cotton terry towel.
    Just like the polishes you use, the cloth you choose will vary from person to person based on:
    Amount of product used
    Amount of pressure applied to the cloth
    The condition of the paint being polished (hard, soft, etc.)
    Don`t be afraid to experiment a little ...
