i have #26 on my new honda civic, and have had it on for over a month. I just got blackfire in the other day, and im wondering what products should i clean my paint with to get off the wax without damaging the paint(im a lil skeptical to washing with dishwashing liquid bc i think it will hurt my paint). Also, would mothers sealer and glaze be a good polish for under the blackfire?
 
I've felt very comfortable using Meguiar's All Purpose Cleaner Plus diluted to 64:1 as a de-waxer. It's very gentle, and diluted that much it is super gentle. I wouldn't use it as a car wash or anything, but it feels pretty safe. Plus, you just spray it on and rinse, so it isn't acting as a car wash. You still use a good car wash, with all it's dirt encapsulating abilities, to actually clean the car. I don't feel comfortable putting Dawn on the car, and mainly using it while rubbing a chenille sponge around on the dirty surface. It's made to be used on pots and pans and dishes and such. Stuff that's much harder to scratch than your paint is. Just my opinion, though. (Plus, APC+ is great for so many other things)



Did you want a product review of a wax remover?
 
Washing once with dishwashing liquid will not hurt your paint at. It's never protecting it with wax and repeated washings that hurt it.



Good luck with the Blackfire. :)
