When to remove wax?
When removing an everyday wax, specificly the meguirs gold class, how do you know when to remove it? I think i keep doing it too soon. Do you actually wait until its a complete white haze? Or do you just give it 5 minutes and remove it?

Are you using a paste or a liquid? If it's the paste, which I think it is, then you don't really need to let it haze. If it says on the container to let it haze, then do 2 panels at a time, by the time you get done with the second panal you can wipe off the first panel.

For many over-the-counter products, this trick seems to work for me... let it haze a few minutes, and then with one finger, lightly make a short swipe -- if it removes cleanly, you're set; if not, let it set a few more minutes and test again.

It is not the paste, Its the liquid.
In the directions it says to do the entire car and then remove..... I dont like to though to ensure i do not miss a spot.
It says nothing about hazing but that is always what i have heard...

Having used Gold Class, I would do a panel or two at a time only. Once it sits for a few minutes I always had a hard time removing it, regardless if I put it on heavy or not.
Ahhh, Opti-Seal is a gift from heaven. So glad I don't put up with that BS anymore.
