  • clean between coats of ultimate wax

    I've polished and applied one coat of ultimate wax. Left it set overnight and had to drive it to work today. Am planning on another coat tonight after it sits for about 24 hours. My question is, I work where it will get a little dusty. How do I clean the dust off between coats? Do I use UQD or something else? Will it be an issue with the second coat if I clean it with something? Thanks.

    Yeah, QD would be fine.

      Thanks for that. By that I would assume nothing in UQD would cause the second coat to not adhere correctly?

        Any QD, WW or even a rinseless wash before hand.

            I dunno if UQD would interfere... certainly a more expensive product to waste if nothing else.

              UQD will not interfere with the second application of Ultimate Wax. Whether you wipe down the car with a quick detailer, a waterless wash or give it a full on bucket wash is up to you, but if it's only been a day since the first wax coat and the weather was decent, a good quick detailer process should be more than sufficient to prep for the second coat. Just pay a bit more attention around panel seams, trim pieces, etc as these can often retain a bit more dust that the waxing pad will easily pick up.

                Thanks guys. I cleaned it with the regular QD and it went great. Two thin coats are much better than one heavy. Ultimate wax comes off real easy when you put it on real thin.
