    When using Tech Wax 2.0, how long do I need to wait before buffing it off?

    Until it is dry, usually about 15-20 minutes.

        General rule of thumb is 15-20 minutes. Time to dry will be affected by humidity, etc.

            That will really depend on how quickly you're getting the car covered and what the ambient temp/humidity is like. If you're apply wax via D/A you can cover the whole car in 5 minutes, and that is simply not sufficient drying time for NXT.

            Now, if you cover the whole car in wax (well, all the painted surfaces anyway!) and then start doing other things like applying tire dressing, vacuuming the interior, cleaning the glass, dressing the interior vinyl & leather, and then cleaning up the garage and getting everything put away, the wax should be dry by the time you're done.
