Regarding the EGP, I left it on for an hour till it hazed a little and then buffed off with no issues. Well, except for being really *moeg* from the day's efforts. Perhaps in CPT with some humidity in the air, the EGP should be left on for a bit more than 30min though? Did you do the finger-tip test before buffing?

Also, I made sure I only squirted approx 1 teaspoonful on the MF cloth at a time and then passed over the area a few times in an effort to spread the layer thinly. Seemed to work well for me


To be honest I did not do the finger test and it was pretty humid that day. Will look to leave it on longer next time. I try to remember the rule, less is more when it comes to quality products.

I applied mine with a foam applicator and buffed with the MF. I was also very "moeg"! LOL!!
