Probably will get around to using it all in the a few weeks, my weekends are kinda full at the moment. While not swissvax or anything spectacular, I took Phil's recommendations and ran with them. Many thanks for all the professional opinions and suggestions. Big to detailers domain.

Now my question is...how do I get an even amount of product on a 6.5" pad from that 3.5" hole?

^^^
I invert the Lusso Oro container onto the pad and make 2-3 circular passes with light pressure, seems to work well for me. A little goes a long way and thin coats are best.

That's what I keep hearing...so in the heat of day, if I invert the container it will start to slide out?

Correct, mine stays loose within the container so it easily falls out onto the pad. Also, I already have the pad attached to the R/O so it's ready to go after application.

You can't go wrong when you explain to Phil what you want to achieve, then purchase what he recommends. If you want top-dollar show car results, he can advise you; if you want "just shinier than the other cars in the parking lot" he can set you up. The man is good...
