Number 1 is how I do it, with a few refinements- basically I do one spray on the towel to "prime", spray on the panel with a sweeping motion, spread and wipe with the towel (I prefer the pink Microtex plush towels for spray wax application), then flip the towel and do a final wipe, to ensure that there are no streaks. No.2 will work, but will be unnecessarily complicated and use more product than needed.
Which side of plush do you use? The hairy one or the terry like one?
