what do you think about this

i just got back from the pocon raceway for nascar .last thursday i thought i would put a coat of wax on my car becuase it would be sitting outside 4 days.today i washed it and ran my finger down the side .the paint was totally dry aswell as my hand.so when i ran it down the side it sqeeked paint was still very smotth and had a really good shine to it.so i was wondering does that sqeek mean there is no wax and the coat i pit on last thursday was gone already or do you think there is still wax there.?

The squeak test Meguiar's recommends for testing if wax is present includes using a terry cloth towel, folded into a ball and twisted against the finish.

If you're just using your finger against the finish, I would think it would squeak with or without wax if the finish is clean?

if poccono is anything like michigan and bristol when I go, your trapped in a mud pit all weekend if it rains and I know it rain there last weekend how trashed did your vehicle get? I can't prove this, but I believe that dirt on your surface will take wax off faster than just a rain storm, at least that seems to be true for my work truck compared to my home truck. I guess I should of said slickness because none of this proves if wax is there or not.

I never drove my car there it sat in my driveway the whole time.Oh well thats how you find out what you like and dislike is by trying defferent things.

You need to buy the wax that has "SQUEEK FREE"on the bottle or else it will squeek.

try another coat. I noticed on my work truck which sets outside, it took a few coats before nxt seemed to "stick". FWIT the truck doesn't get to much attention, I'm lucky if I can buff it once a year and wax it 4x's. the only reason I had time to try several coats was the weather being so weird this year. after about the thrid try nxt seemed to stay much better. I should change that to "the slickness and water beading seemed to stay with the truck better".
