What wax to use?
« on: September 17, 2008, 06:42:25 PM »
What is the right type of wax to apply to a clear dope finish after buffing the final clear coat? Any suggestions on brand and where to get it? H^^

I usually use Maguires. Doesn't hurt to hit it with a hand glaze either.

You can get bowling alley wax?

Thanks guys. Looks like Maguires is it. We have some good auto supply shops I will check out.

I use NuFinish  ( bought at any auto supply store , Walmart , etc )  the liquid not the paste . It seems to go on and polish up easier than some of the paste waxes . Gives good protection for raw fuel too .
