| | | How do you guys remove wax's and sealants that are on the car?
So this weekend or next weekend I want to hit up some swirls and small scratches with my UDM and XMT 1 or maybe even XMT 2. But I still have a lot of wax on my car and even sealant that I applied about a month ago. So how do i remove all the wax on my car so that I can hit it up with the polisher and pre-wax? |

| | | XMT is a paint polish and will remove old wax and sealant. No need to worry, just follow the steps. Wash --- Clay -- Polish --- Protect |

| | | No need to remove it before polishing. The polishing process will remove what's there.
Have you clayed recently? If not, maybe do so before polishing. |

| | | for the record, if you did want to remove everything and you were NOT polishing, the best cleanser to use is Zymol's HD Cleanse or Pinnacles Paintwork Cleansing Lotion.
like the others said, the process of polishing will remove EVERYTHING.
