WX block and seal question

Is the stuff in the #2 WX block supposed to be a runny liquid? I was
expecting something a little more like the seal material.............I
almost poured the whole damn bottle on the top of my wing!

Both are runny liquids and work very well.

In my experience the first applied is much more viscous than the
second applied.

Shake before use!

Brad,

Just did my wings this weekend (it was a balmy 76 or so in Phoenix).

Shake both vigorously before use, obviously.

The WxSeal (#1) is white and thick, almost chalky. Takes a good towel
to get off - let really dry and it's pretty easy.

WxBlock (#2) is tan and creamy. Goes on easy, let dry, comes off real
easy. Clean towel, turn often.

Be careful after you do the bottom of the fuselage - it will move on
the dolly really easy!

thanks everyone for the info. I noticed that the WxSeal was thick and
chalky, and was surprised that the WxBlock was not and was alarmed by
it pouring out of the container faster than I expected! the directions
say to pour lines of it on the surface and spread
around.....................this approach resulted in those lines
streaming off the back of my flaperons!

can't argue with the results tho..............second coat of Block
goes on today.

Brad

yes just shake it up good before using it..and most important this time of
year, DON'T LEAVE EITHER BOTTLE IN THE TRAILER OR HANGAR IF IT GETS COLD
ENOUGH TO FREEZE.....Once frozen it's pretty much a throw away....
Best Regards

I have been using a similar product for years. I use a heavy duty spray bottle for both the dry wash and the wax.
It allows for better coverage with less waste. (It lasts longer that way)

Is there an automotive wax that would work well and cost less?

Not as well as Wx Seal/Block
