Hey guys,
I've currently got a dark red 2012 Fusion. I'm by no means an expert detailer but enjoy cleaning the car and keeping it looking good. I never gave it much thought until just recently when I saw a discussion about the types of applicators and bonnets available on the market. It's enough to make my head spin trying to keep track of them all Lol.
In the past, I always did my waxing by hand using a foam or microfiber applicator. Then I was given a orbital polisher which I'll admit isn't "high end" but has made applying and spreading of the wax a lot easier. I never gave it much thought until just recently when I saw an arguement on-line about whether it was better to use foam or to use microfiber.
The problem is.... I can't seen to find any bonnets for my machine that are foam. There's plenty of microfiber and lots of Terry cloth types. The packaging on one of the products I saw claimed that the microfiber was for "buffing" while the terry cloth types were for applying.
So whether I decide to do this job by hand or by machine. Which type do you you recommend I use for applying the wax/polish? .
Thanks!.
