Straight lines is the way you want to work it, this is the reason all why all products like pre wax cleaners say to apply in straight lines as it will fill better.

But using a machine is soo much easier, i never understand why anyone would want to apply anything apart from the LSP by hand !

i guess most people don't wish to spend £100+ on a machine polisher, hence doing it by hand!

on a bottle of sounus i have, it says apply in circles, but then finish in lines, then buff off etc.

i thought different products tell you the different techniques to use
