@#$% paste wax,never again

Exactly..but once AGAIN one of the know it alls who thinks they're never wrong has to chime in with all their wisdom:banghead::banghead::banghead:

Mooooommmmm! He's picking on me!

Look either give good advice or pipe down. This whole "I wax once a month" is bad advice and everyone associated with wax production will tell you that. Wax three to fours times a year or when it stops beading water. I don't know why that's such a hard concept for you to grasp, but water beading means the droplets are rolling off, not sheeting and standing there.

Now, that that's out of way, I wanted to know what the OP did that it took six hours to wax a full size pick up. Others can learn from that, just as they can learn from listening to others being helpful with product suggestions without the whole "my **** is awesome because I do this." There was absolutely no reason for you to sit and turn the thread into how awesome your stuff is (again).

I'm sold on carnuba wax if the customer wants a wash and wax. (Just FYI, I owned my own shop up until a few years ago. I did everything under the sun. Collision and paint, mechanical with an emphasis on driveability, but also engine, trans, and rear end rebuilds as well as fixing anything my customers needed and I'd schedule details on Fridays to give myself a light day before the weekend. My knowledge is hardly out of date.) Carnuba is a hard wax that lasts and does it's job without the whole "touch up" thing.

If my customers were willing to pay and want the best paint protection, I went with a sealer, not a wax. There's a difference. A wax is cheaper and readily available. A sealer is something you'll have to talk to your jobber about.
