Re: to much wax?

Re: to much wax?

use the meguiars cleaner wax every few months. that way you don't accumulate too much wax.

Re: to much wax?

if you REALLY want to make sure you strip the old wax off use "IPA"

Re: to much wax?

Yes you can...but why? There's NO need to wax every week. It may sound like a good idea now, but I'm sure you'll get sick of it. Depending on the wax the extra layers are not going to do anything. A good wax will at least last for 4 weeks or so.

Once a week? Holy ****in shit.

The only wax that's ever touched my Blazer came from a the nozzle next to the foam brush.

lol, yes polishes, waxes nope.

I mean some of the waxes I only get to last 4-6 weeks before I see a difference in slickness and beading, but the average joe wouldn't.

Yes I love collinite 476 and 845. I have like 10 bottles of the 845
