I agree with this one. I read a great post today on how these numbers of carnuba content tend to be fudged even by some higher end wax manufacturers.

a relative of mine told me that I will rub my paint off, when he saw me buffing the paint with a MF after I removed a coat of wax...

This is not actually a myth.Some very old paints had this 'ability' to washed off.I don't remember why (it was something wrong with the mixture of the paint) but it was possible to wipe your car for drying and see the paint colour on the towel....
