sir theveed, sorry kung medyo tanga ako. When you say "cap," anong "cap" ang tukoy mo?

once a week lang naman ako mag linis ng auto... kaya sulit na yung 2 caps per bucket...

groucho... the cap of the shampoo container (which used to be a meguiar's cleaner container)...

theveed, need your advise. EXCALIBUR wax was applied to a black color car. usually, you apply wax and let it dry to a haze, right? well, not on this wax. nung i buff na hindi na maalis yung swirl marks. ano kaya maganda na pang alis? thanks in advance!

[theveed]

Almost all waxes need to haze, the question is how long the wait should be. It depends on how thin or thick you've applied the wax. Most people use 2-5x more than necessary making the product extremely hard to remove.

You got swirlmarks AFTER you waxed?

Something is wrong here... Need more info.

OT: to the moderators. sorry for the multiple send of the same message. nagloloko yata connection ko .

theveed, thank you for the fast reply. actually the 'swirl' are hardened wax na ang hindi maalis. we are afraid that the paint might be damaged if we use force to remove it

might wanna try to spritz some QD to help. . .

[theveed]

Dont waste your money sa QD, soak each panel with water and soap and scrub lightly.

thanks theveed! but isnt soap bad fot the car finish specially when you rinse and it goes to the hard to reach areas? how about kerosene? or maybe re-apply the wax and wipe it off before it dries? were afraid to experiment as it may make the problem worse.
