Spray Wax Application -- On a Wet or Dry Car?
Many of the spray waxes on the market say that they can be applied on a dry car or on a wet car, as a wax-as-you-dry product. It seems to me that applying them on a wet car would be less effective than on a dry car for obvious reasons -- that is, the product may not bond with the surface as well or become diluted. Does anyone know if spray waxes are less effective when applied to a wet car than a dry car? Thanks.

Re: Spray Wax Application -- On a Wet or Dry Car?
Stick with spraying a spray-on wax to a dry car.
If the product states you can apply to a wet car you can however the water on the car will tend to run when you spray a wax onto it and then it carries the water and wax mixture into cracks and crevices where you can't get it out and it may turn white. It's also kind of messy overall.
Stick with applying wax to dry cars, you'll be happier in the end.
Also, UQD gives you the appearance benefits of a spray on wax and you don't have to let it dry, it's a lot more "Bubba Proof" as using a spray-on wax requires a little technique. There's two how to articles for using spray on waxes in the how-to forum.
