Hey guys, picked up a new car the other day, I had a red one that I used speed & proxy on it, looked great.............did the same thing on the white one and it looks kind of grease ............feels real slick, just doesn't look right, and when I use quick detailer on it, I'm having a hard time seeing if I'm getting all the streaks out...........im starting to think maybe white wasn't all I thought it would be.

Looking for some recommendations on what your using for a wax or sealant on the white.

Thanks

Rich

Thanks Custm, for the link, mine isn't a pearl white........its called knuckle white, looks like regular white to me. LOL

Guess I"ll try a sealant next..........do I have to re-polish to get the speed off, or just put a sealant over that.

I know probably a dumb question.

Poxy. This has to be the most misspelled product around. Lol

Most of the time it's because it's being posted from a cell phone and it auto corrects it to Proxy.

Richs 66 try putting another coat of Poxy on 1 section of the car and leave it on over night. Take it off the next day and see if that helps. I have left Poxy on for over 24 hours in a garage kept car before removing with great results.
