Default Question about downtimes while waxing......

As of right now, I have boat loads of high end waxes that I get for free through a friend, so I won't be paying for Zaino anytime soon. I currectly use decent high end stuff, Gold Class, Meguiars, etc....

My question is this......What's the longest I should let normal wax sit before taking it off? I let a coat of wax sit on the car all night last night, and the fuggin **** was hard as hell to get off! TIA

Personally, I think over night is too long. Depends on the wax. I believe that you have to leave paste on for longer, especially 26 yellow Meguirs which workd great if you leave it on for aournd a half hour at least. It is hard to take off. But I hate it when people complain abou this. Big deal, you get some excercise. Gold Class you can take off sooner and it will work well too.

Sell the stuff you have to some friends and buy some Zaino. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

I take both off only after a few minutes...

A little challenge...Just use Zaino once, then make your choice. You don't have to buy it, borrow it. You'll buy it later. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
