    Re: Best in show.

    And what do you want us to tell you? Sounds like you left it to "cure" for way too long in far less than ideal environmental conditions.

    Please at least tell us you didn't just leave a ton of holograms in your customer's paint to boot after "wooling off" the wax with your rotary.....

    Griot's Spray On Wax misted over the dried Best of Show Wax will rehydrate it and make wiping it off easier. I do that all the time.

    It said to leave it on that long. I use p21s,collinite427,825,liquid glass and may other waxes without a problem. Everyone said it comes of easy. What did I do wrong ?

    I highly doubt the instructions say to leave in on for 2 hours before removing it. I could be wrong, but that seems ridiculous.

    I don't believe they say to leave it on for that long, but it says to leave the wax on as long as possible, even overnight, in order to achieve the best shine possible. This was the first quality wax that I used, and I tried to let it sit for about 15 minutes and then wipe, but that was too much of a pain. I started applying it and wiping it 5 minutes after application and it was much easier and looked great.
