I agree with Z factor however I do not use wax. Never have. I do car resto's and wax after a period of 10 years causes paint issues, peeling,crows feet etc. Paint expands and contacts with heat, cold and temp changes. Some waxes inhibit this causing issues. This is also true with fiberglass. It is cured but has the same tendencies Talk to any old timer who has an orig. 60 or 70's car with orig. paint and 95% of the will back this up NO WAX. I also feel this is why there are delamination issues the our winsheilds. Whatever adhesive was used is failing due to temp/climate/uv rays.
Just my 2 cents.
