Decided to have some fun this week-end.

First made my own wax like so many others on this forum.

Used 40% Megs #16, 20% P21S, 20% Natty`s Blue and 20% Trade Secret (4 favourites) = Chutneywax;) .

Melted the wax in a jar sitting in boiling water and let it cool outside.

The wax looks like this :

I first thought to layer the wax using Megs #7 in between but after some negative advice on this forum I decided to try the conventional spit shining method (cool demeniralized water).

Process :

Chutneywax

Spit shine

Chutneywax

Buffed it off wit MF

Cured overnight

QD

Chutneywax

Spit shine

Chutneywax

Buffed it off with MF



Tried this process on the front of the car.

The wax went on more like NB and went off like #16. The front is dripping wet :drool: and was darkened.

This is the result :

I wanted to but had nothing else to pour into. However it helps to take not too much on the foam pad.



Thanks for the nice comments.

chutney- Yeah, that turned out great! Nice that you got some pics in the cool sunset too.



So you decided not to use the #7 at all?

Come on, that`s not wax, you poured baby oil on that car! Seriously, excellent results. That is a mean deep, wet gloss.

I didn`t us #7. I wanted to see the result of the wax by itself. Maybe next time to see if there is a difference.
