New Idea for waxing.

Most waxes say "spray and wipe down with water to enhance shine"

Why not wax the piss outta your car.. then just use soad and water to remove it???

Not sure I understand.

Waxes I use need to be applied.

i think he means that after you wax.....spray the car down with a light mist of water....to help cure the wax..........I have heard of this before.....do I do it....No

Basically, I would wash/dry the car.. apply the wax... let it cure, then wash down again, then quick detailer...

Most waxes dry on the surface of the paint, requiring you to buff the wax off to a shine. Washing and drying the car isn't going to remove the haze, its simply going to smear it around and make a mess. Unless there is some other kind of wax to are referring to that I'm not familiar with that works differently.

i would just wax it then use some QD save you time and looks pretty much the same

Wax.
Wipe off.
Let cure. Getting it wet will reduce the length of time it lasts.

I used Zymol and it says to apply the wax and buff off then spray with a light mist and wipe off..........anyone heard of doing that?

**bgable** · 10-27-2008, 01:42 PM

I've used zymol and done it and it does help but idk if it would work with other waxes

**JoshieDoom** · 10-27-2008, 09:41 PM

eh, said screw it and did it the old fashion way.. then i hosed it down and buffed it out... looks damn good as always... lol

I'm with him. the company wants you to waste the product by applying water and shiting-up the luster forcing you to think you need to do it again/more often whatever.

i use "final detail spray wax" & love this stuff. spray on a panel--wipe it in & wipe till dry using of course you microfibre cloth. There is no white residue & you can do your complet car in apprx 15 minutes, So easy to apply 7 remove & this is a plus nowadays!! Spend more time driving & less time waxing your car!!
