You basically rub the hairs of the bow onto the rosin. But, the rosin has to be scraped to gab onto the bow hairs. But good rosin does no need to be scraped before using. I one bought a violin that came with a free rosin and I rubbed it on for half an hour and nothing went on. I then bought a more expensive piece of rosin and it worked just fine.
