Continue by applying the sponge treatment to the parts of the car that are considered dry. Make a circular up-and-down motion to ensure the sponge is evenly applied to the car. 

Wait for at least 10 to 15 minutes until it dries. Then, clean it using a microfiber cloth. Once done, proceed to the waxing process, which is applying wax to the car parts.
