What's the preferred method to wax/polish by hand?

Do you wax in a circular motion? (like a power polisher?) or straight in on direction?

What do you dudes do?

I use Zaino and just follow their directions:

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>Squirt a dime size dab of polish on your applicator and rub it into your paint using circular hand motions. Then, go over the same area using a straight back and forth motion on top panels and an up and down motion on side panels.[/b][/quote]

Kinda goes against conventional wisdom, but so far I've only used straight lines with my Zaino, and I have no swirls to complain of.

I haven't had the chance to do mine yet, but I will follow Zaino's advice to the letter. Every car I have ever seen done with Zaino has looked simply amazing. Check out the gallery on thier website. The results are incredible.
