Just had a quick look at this wax - it's very much like a very milky liquid, like water. Is this the norm? Could I put the contents in a spray bottle and apply it this way? I've applied the pro soft polish today, so I would like to get the Glanz on tomorrow.

Yes max use a sprayer to mist it onto a pad to release some of the solvents
Heres one I made earlier

I mention in that thread about misting to release the solvent content of the glans wax otherwise it will remove the wax polish soft. Yes the product should be milky and smell like rocket fuel.
Bloody good stuff!!!

I haven't got any pads - just been using the einzett MFs today when I applied their polish. Can I spray direct to paint or is it best on the MF? Also is this a sealant or wax?

Just shape the m/f into a pad shape that will be fine, Experiment with spraying onto pad/paint but if you get any fine purple residue on m/f then its the glans removing the wps.
Its a sealant

But the site says that the Glanz goes on the wps:confused: Also if its a sealant, shouldn't I be putting a wax on top?:confused: Sorry for the questions, but I'm still a newbie to the lengthy process of detailing.

Yes the glans does sit very nicely on the WPS but needs a little help! Try it........ apply the glans directly onto the WPS and then look at the m/f there should be some purle transfer and then do the spritz thing and there should be no or very little WPS transfer! Makes sense logically?
The above 1Z products break the rules!! You should always apply a seaalnt first and then a wax on top of it. However the above products do work the other way around. (WPS does contain wax). Maybe the wax is removed when you apply the solvent heavy glans - who knows but don't worry about it, it works!!
One thing you will learn is that product instrctions are generally pretty dire and your best bet is to either experiment or ask on this board to coin a phrase from L200 Steve!!
