    I will wipe the truck down with the California Gold Instant Detailer in the morning and advise the customer to come back at frequent intervals. My hopes were to get another coat of wax on the truck so maybe I could get a little extra shine and gloss but she looks pretty good so I'll just hit er with another coat of wax when she comes back.

    It won’t degrade your wax. If it were me, I’d go for the least expensive, easiest to find product, which would be the California Gold Instant Detailer. It’ll work fine over the wax you’re using.

    I quick detailed the truck this morning, and noticed that I had one waxing towel left so I applied another coat of wax to the hood and tailgate after the using the instant detailer.

    Worked like a charm and that truck was popping!

    Thank you for all of your help!
