    Wax remover?

    So I been doing pressure wash / foam, two bucket method, then tar / bug spray but not claybar and put temp spray on wax until I can claybar, iron x and possibly polish . Is there way to remove the wax I put on? I know claybar will remove this but for future I like to re wax every 2 to 3 months so was told I should remove old wax and put on new. I know some wax or other sealant is hard to remove so I’m pretty sure some wax removal spray won’t take it out instantly.

    So what should I do if I plan on rewaxing every 2 to 3 months . I wanna get hang of waxing before going ceramic coating

    Are you talking a carnauba wax or a sealant or a combo?
    Wax, as in carnauba or Montan, are quite easily removed. Sealants can be a different story.

    Re: Wax remover?

    Well right now I think I stripped the wax from lot of car washes (even with safe car wash soap) and time after getting it from dealer. So I sprayed on meguiars quick spray wax. I want to remove this so next week I can do clay and iron x as well. Then put Carnauba wax (but I got the meguiar white wax as it supoosedyl helps white cars shine)

    So what do I do remove the meguiars quick spray wax. Then afterwards I use the meguiars white wax for white cars? (Not sure if this one is Carnauba or not have to see)

    This product will not only remove Waxes,
    but I’ve also used it to remove many other
    paint contaminates.

    Stuff like grease, adhesive residue, dirt,
    tree sap, road tar, oil, and bugs don’t stand
    a chance.

    Yep...it’s a must have staple in
    your detailing arsenal, IMO.

    White Wax is an abrasive cleaner wax and it will remove the spray wax that is on it. White Wax is a a carnauba wax with synthetic polymers. You can use white wax a few months later as it will clean, polish and protect in one step. The claying and chemical decon will remove a majority if the spray wax.

    Car soap from Walmart.

    If you buy it make sure you buy a clothespin so you don’t also smell it, as it smells pretty rancid.

    Is this safe on car paint and clear coat? Won’t strip clear coat?

    We are talking about this one right? This is what I have

    https://www.walmart.com/ip/Meguiar-s...EaAkXbEALw_wcB


    So if I wax every 2 months, I don’t have to remove wax (white wax) as it will polish out the old (white wax) and the new white wax will cling to clear coat right?

    As for claying I thought it was only to be done once or twice a year. I don’t mind claying every two months but I think this will cause some marring or eat clear coat
