two coats of wax

I was wondering how long after I apply and wipe off the first coat of wax should I apply the second coat and wipe.
Or does applying two or even three coats of wax worth it?? I mean is the wax stronger and lasts longer with 2 or 3 coats applied in one sitting

wax on wax off...didn't you see the karate kid??

don't let the wax sit ..it dries and is damn harder to take off once it dries...do small sections at a time!!

I just finished putting another two coats of wax and 2 coats liquid glass...my boo is looking SWEETTTTT (i also think i inhaled way to much lol)

i even waxed my rims....makes a HUGE difference...I can now tell that they are SILVER and not gray ....hopefully the wax will make them easier to clean off the brake dust at the next washing!!!


i'm going out to sport my baby now show off her clean lines and all the new paint chips I discovered while waxing

It depends on what wax you are using, in order to determine cure time.

liquid glass is another one of those wonderful items i learned about here on the org

it "provides the ultimate polish/finish and produces a smooth, hard and mirror like finish"

by the time you are done with the wax and liquid glass...the sky should reflect from the hood, trunk and roof
your girlfriend/wife will be able to apply her makeup by looking at her reflection on the door
other drivers will gasp and point and ask you where you got your car detailed (which just happened to me...didn't believe me when I said that I did it...bastards)

and....you will be madd tired...drink a beer!!!

use liquid glass AFTER waxing...

other products to use and hints for washing waxing can be found in the cleaning your car thread here:

*** Um, no. You see, she was just joking when she said use liquid glass AFTER waxing. Putting AFTER in caps was just a way of trying to make the joke funnier. <----sarcasm

Yes, AFTER waxing.
