This particular wax works best with small buffer for great shine but not necessary. I use on small airplane, and motorcycle. It last and protects great in southern California.

Wax (not polishes) should be applied by either an ultra fine finishing pad on low setting or in straight lines (in direction of airflow across the surface). To "buff" off the wax, yes you should buff off the wax with a buffing towel after proper application. I'm not aware of a wax that is applied and not buffed off (including spray wax... Perhaps that wax as you dry stuff, if that's the road you seek, I would research that on Autogeek)

With a new will not need all of this kit just yet. You will want to make sure your cars in a cool area such as shade or a garage then wash you car and hand dry it to avoid water spots. Then wax it and finally do the tires with the gel. Also you will want to make sure you wait about 20 minutes before driving to make sure the tire gel dries so it will not sling off onto your car.

I leave the wax in and reuse it. Just plug it in a few hours ahead and it should be fine.

If your car is older and has a lackluster finish. You can use it all over to restore the paint. It removes all the little scratches and swirl marks and oxidation, etc.... I wouldn't use it a whole lot though. Use regular wax almost every time. A car needs to be waxed regularly to protect the paint from rain, etc....

You do not need to wax after it's applied. It will leave a very nice protective shine that will mirror images back at you. Great product! I will purchase again...

You probably don't need to wax it, but if you were told they covered scratches, you were misled. We were told by the Nissan dealer that by having Xzilon applied they would take care of scratches, etc., and they don't take care of scratches at all, even though on their website they ask the length of your scratches, etc. Doesn't make much sense and I wouldn't buy this product again. You might as well wax.

This is a hard wax. As you work with it it will soften. After you polish it it will harden again. Its hardness is what makes it such a good wax. You don't need a thick coat of wax but you might want to do 2 or 3 applications with a polish between applications.

This is not really a "car wax". This is for rubbing out the paint after a minor repair or rubbing out minor scratches that do not damage the pimer underneath. After using this you should apply a regular car wax to protect the paint.

Very good. I am fixing some scratches and swirl marks. First, you clean the car with a waterless solution in the winter or garden hose in the summer and dry with a microfiber towel. Second, you put the Meguiar cleaner wax on with a polishing pad and buff the water spots gently. Third, you clean the residuals from buffing.

No, I didn't use one. A good microfiber pad/towel is the best at buffing the wax out. That first over buffing towels if by hand. The only problem I had was knowing if I got all the wax off. White wax dried on a white car Do much more smaller sections at the time to make sure you got it all off

Polish is a light abrasive to the paint. It takes away ultra thin layers of the clearcoat to smooth out, and fill in, all of the imperfections in the paint surface. Polish is also excellent for light to moderate scratch repair. By lightly polishing the car, you are making the paint perfectly uniform, which should create a uniform reflection from all angles. It is a good to polish a car once or twice a year. Perhaps three or four times a year if the car is not garaged. Be advised, polish is not wax. You MUST wax the car immediately after you polish to lock in and preserve the benefits of the polish. If you do not, it will be all be washed away in the next rainstorm or car wash. Carnauba wax is resistant to water, that's why when you wax your car it will last typically one to three months. I highly recommend using a spray wax after every car wash. It will keep your paint looking like new for a very long time and extend the benefits of the polishing.

Yes, I have buffed a few cars with it, I work at new car dealer and occassionally need to buff and wax a salesman demo.

I would polish the dull weathered areas, and then wax the whole car. If you use it on plastic headlights you may need to polish them afterwards with a lens or CD polishing compound (it is a finer grit)

No, This is for waxing and buffing. Product is OK, I do not use as expected.

The wax comes with an applicator pad for buffing . So put the cream on the pad and apply in circular motion..simple but really not that great if you want the truth...

Yes, if there aren't any breaks in the finish use a small amount of soapy water as a lubricant. But if there is anywhere the water can get through the the finish (cracks or penetrations) it will cause the finish to blister. If the finish is solid, start with 1000 and move up to at least 3600. Then you can buff with wax or very fine car polish, then wax.

This is the best wax available. Go ahead and use it on your new car to protect the finish and keep it looking new.
