Well Wheaty you have come a long way since the days of the smear and go technique. Now Iknow how a father feels after seeing his baby take his first steps. Now in saying that we still have a ways to go until the perfect bead job but I dohave faith in you.

Geometrically aligned beads of regulation depth are the holy grail of course. Just as long as I avoid a ticket from the wax job police I'm happy.
However ... I do have a photo in my archives of your Cooper with a dirty smeary job that would have lost you several points off your license if not a full suspension.

You wouldnt?....... Yes you would. Well if it ever went to trial I will say that I had lent my board to you and I had no idea that there was a mrs. Palmers breech. The trialwould get ugly and you might be found at fault after I pullout my archives of your far from good Wax jobs. Two can play at this game.

Are you willing to share the advice / instructions for the perfect wax job? I have just cleaned the yater Spoon and it would be good to aim for your high standards. Geometrically aligned beads of regulation depth.... etc.

I really should let MP take up this discussion. He even reckons some fanatics in California mask out before starting!! OCD alert.
I will say you need a hard wax (preferably Sex Wax).

Check above for instruction video on their web site, but there is much room for improvement on that technique however.
Calling MP.... maybe its time we did a youtube video?
