How-to prepare the vehicle’s paint surface before waxing
For best results with Meguiar’s Ultimate Liquid Wax, start with a freshly washed vehicle. Always use a pH balanced car wash soap like Meguiar’s Ultimate Wash & Wax. Next, run your clean, dry fingertips over the paint.
If the paint feels rough to the touch this indicates that you have bonded contaminants on top of your paint.
These are things like tree sap mist, industrial fallout, road tar, and paint overspray. Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit comes with everything you need to safely remove contaminants bonded on the paint and leave it as smooth as glass.
Finally, evaluate the paint for below surface defects.
If you have light to moderate swirls, scratches, oxidation, water spots, or etchings you would want to use a product like Meguiar’s Ultimate Compound.
From there you would follow with a polish like Ultimate Polish for maximum shine before applying your wax protection.
A few tips when applying the Ultimate Liquid Wax
- One of the biggest mistakes people make when applying a wax is applying it too heavily. This only prolongs drying time, making the wax more difficult to remove and using more product than necessary. Always spread the wax very thin and evenly over the paint.
- For the easiest removal, use a clean, dry microfiber towel like Meguiar’s Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel (included in the box). Please be aware that low temperatures and/or high humidity can prolong the initial curing time of Ultimate Wax.
- For best results, apply the Meguiar’s Ultimate Paste Wax in the shade to a clean, cool surface one section at a time. Allow 3-5 minutes of initial cure time before removing the paste wax.
- One way to tell if the wax is dry and ready to be wiped off is by performing a swipe test. Run an index finger across the wax and if the wax smears, it is not ready to be wiped off. However, if it’s a clear swipe, the wax is ready to be removed.
