the wax residue is normal - just wait for them to come out within an hour after you first buffed the wax off, then just buff off the residue with a MF cloth

nanoglos can usually be buffed off a couple of minutes after it's been applied, and it's actually soft compared to other waxes.

to minimize the residue, apply the most minimal amount of wax that you can put on the car... remember that only a very thin layer actually holds on to the paint, the rest is wasted..

as long as there's some form of haze, ok na, may wax na yun

in terms of MF cloth quality, microtex is up there with moms and megs

best thing is their products are relatively cheap compared to either moms or megs... hehe.

It's 500 each pack, so if you get the two gift packs, 1000 in total. Youll get the sun shield, tire black, shampoo, and cloth in the first pack, and nano gloss, nano sliq, applicator and cloth in the second - kulang na lang is a wash mitt (or two) and tire brush/sponge.

*scharnhorst, thanks for this very informative post. Inaapply ko na yung natutunan ko sayo.

Curious lang, ilang oras ang nauubos mo following your procedures?

I can take up to 2 hours, especially if I have to apply collinite 476... hehe.

2 and a half if I have to clean the interior..

guessing sealing will take 3 hours
