Need a little advise

[Mike Phillips]

I also have a couple cases of Lucas Slick Mist wax spray that I got a killer deal on.

Is this stuff any good in your opinion?

I kind of use this as a detail spray not really expecting it to be a very good wax.

Can I use this over the CG ceramic coating Hyperwax?

I've never used it but I have a customer that uses it religiously on his classic 1963 Porsche and he really likes it and his Porsche always looks great.

I'd say the most important thing is to make sure the "things" that touch the paint are clean and un-contaminated.


See my article and watch my video here,

How, why & when to inspect your microfiber towels when detailing cars



And as far as using it over any brand of coating? I don't see a problem. I have a quote, goes like this,

Find something you like and use it often




Have to go, doing a live interview in about 25 minutes.

My plan was to wash with Dawn,

I thought washing with dawn is a no-no?

I've always used Dawn to get rid of any old wax etc.
What would you use to get rid of it?

Just ordered a Porter Cable and some pads.
Thanks for the tips so far Mike.
The Black fire is a little spendy I'll maybe try it down the road.
I have a full quart of Meguiars 205 I'll use for now.

Don't matter. When you machine polish with the M205 it will obliterate everything on the surface.

I never wash to remove old LSPs. I wash, clay and start buffing. All my work comes out just as expected.

Flavor of the month a few years back. Used a ton of it as a QD, worked well.

Now that is funny.

There is no harm in using DAWN, but there certainly are no advantages either.

Dawn will not remove any old waxes. (Waxes are not fat-based like food grease).

That said, neither will most dedicated car soaps. The difference is in the lubricity that has been engineered into the two products.

All things being equal, I would choose more lubricity.

I used Dawn tonight to wash my plate and pots. That's as far as I'm going to take it
