    Default I think i knw the best way to apply!

    I think it is best to start at the top with horizontal strokes. After the first stroke do the same so that your brush runs over about 25% of the last strokes continue to do this till you reach the bottom. DO NOT GO BACK AND BRUSH OVER ANY MISSED SECTIONS THIS IS WHAT MAKES STREAKS. In other words it's a one shot deal. Do the strokes right the first time so you don't have to try to fix anything. Any thoughts?

    This is similar to how the Veil Guy does it, and it turns out great.

    I found that a 3" wide foam brush I bought at Home Depot works a lot better than the brushes that come with the Veil.

    I think the 2 inch foam applicator does a really good job. I can apply veil on almost every headlight streak free. Only problem i seem to miss a few spots lol

    Sorry for asking a "newbish" question what kind of brush does the viel come with?? I'm thinking about buying it and am just wondering, maybe I will go to the home depot. Also has viel ever really saved anyone or is it a waste instead of an investment??

    According to the Veil Guy (Bob was it???) he'll be including the 3" Foam brush with all new Veil starting soon, or maybe already.............and as for this, me and My brother used VERTICAL strokes starting top to bottom, and it really works
