Last Time You Waxed Your Camaro? - Page 3

About 5 weeks ago, during the last interlude of cool and comfortable weather. Next one will come the fall. I have ceramic coating though, so my finish should be reasonably protected during the torrid summer.

It won't. You don't let it haze either, but in the pics it's either hazed or used too much. With ULW, you want to barely see it, and wipe off in a minute or 5.

Appreciate all the comments.

As far a paste wax goes, you do put more on that spray n wipe. I really swirl it a few times to make sure it removes light scratches. This wax even darkens the color a shade so I have to get all the surface covered. The can mentions improved depth of color

Ultimate wax, I apply it on all the trim even the plastic trim around the windows, headlights tail lights. No problems at all coming off and it makes everything look great.

They call it that for the avg consumer that doesn't follow the market. Just a marketing name.

Absolutely! No need to mask your trim.

Jescar Powerlock sealant. Every 3 months. And every now and then some collinite 845. Nothing else!
