303 wax Do you have any short cuts?

Here are the Directions:
"Spray on, wetting the surface with 303® Aerospace Protectant™. WIPE COMPLETELY DRY. Turn cloth over to a dry area (or use a second clean, dry, absorbent cloth) and polish to remove any and all excess. Following these simple instructions.getting the surface wet (not just damp) with 303®, then WIPING COMPLETELY DRY, will give you a beautiful, like-new finish that repels soiling and stains and LASTS LONGER".

My question is:Does anybody have any short cuts to " wiping completely dry". I like the product but wiping the product dry is a real pain.
Sort of like doing the dishes and having to wiping a 40 foot plate dry. That's is 40 foot one side 40 foot other side and 16 foot for front and rear. That is 96 feet worth of wiping!

  • You're using to much at once.
    I usually hold the sprayer 16+ inches away and 'mist' it lightly then wipe it off.
    It's not a wax, it's a UV protector. It does make my kayak supper slippery, a bonus.

  • Like fordtruckguy i only use mine on the decals and plastic. I tried it once on the camper and it quite frankly was too time consuming. I just use a good quailty wax on the rest of it and its easier that way, JMHO.
  • could try using an orbital buffer and just change the pads. Just an idea, I have never used that product before.
  • Other than having someone else do it, one must follow those directions or the results will be less than ideal.
