Well let's see now. Your main problem is that you aren't asking the right question.
Carnaubas come in liquid and paste form.
So your question is really...How do I use a PC with a carnauba paste wax?
The answer is pretty simple.
You don't. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there are reasons why we use liquid products with machine polishers. Most of the time, trying to get the product out of a can or from an applicator onto the foam buffing pad just isn't worth the trouble.
But if you really want to do it, you're going to have to find a way to get your pad into the can, and swirl it around so that it generates some enough heat to soften the wax. As you do this, it will build up on the pad. Now you can put that on your buffer, and hope that going through all that effort is even worth it.
As for switching to BG? It wouldn't help in your case because it's a hand applied product. It would make no sense to suggest something that isn't even compatible with the PC now would it?

The look of the paint after I buff the wax is friggin amazing, so I am willing to deal with it, but I am just wondering if anyone has any ideas on a better process?
And no, I am not going to switch to BG.
