EGP application info

I will be applying by hand so what is the best way to apply it? Single layer? thick or thin and wait? Several thin layers and wait then wax?
Back and forth, circular motion? Using Microfibre?
Any help appreciated as its my first go with this!

Foam hand pad, apply as thinly (when I say thin I mean thin lol )as possible to the whole car, back and forth. Allow to cure for 45-60 mins plus and remove with a microfiber. For best results reapeat gain 12 -24 hours later with an additional coat.

Cheers Guys! SO if i put wash,dry polish and then apply this tommorrow night, leave it untilmorning coat aagain and wax itll be all gravy? What if it rains? Is it ok to just dry, quick detail, apply again then wax?

If it rains on it you should really rewash to be on the safe side.

I used to QD my old light blue car after leaving it overnight, if the 182 was not garged I dont think I would risk it on black.

Rewash then reapply straight onto the paint on would i have to SRP it agian? Ideally i should seal it, wait an hour then wax to be sure it doenst get rained on?!?

After washing you can do another coat of EGP without SRP yes.

Looking at the forecast I have given up on bringing mine!

Ad, ive barely time to do mine else i would! If you want it doing one weekend ill be more than happy too though. Find those damn handles ;)
Cheers Rich, i think you may be right but it need a wash anyway so thoug a quick polish seal an wax will make her shine even if it does decide to absolutely piss down!
