to remove. So can anyone give me a little advice on using this wax.Like what kind of towel works best and what is the ideal time to Leave it on before removing it ?????

Apply it very thin and it removes easily with a MF towel. Hazing time depends on temperature/humidity, but I usually apply it to one or 2 panels and then go back and remove.

Yeah, I just apply it thin with a PC and have never had a problem. I usually do the whole vehicle before I go back and start buffing it off.

That is the key, apply it very thin and it will come off easily. If you have any stubborn spots just re-apply some more #16 and it will re-liquify the product.

I've never had a problem with this wax, but I use it like Souveran. Apply in a small area and immediately buff off. It hasn't seemed to effect durability and it's really, really easy.

Ditto above post's. No problems when applied to one panel, then buff off after applying to the second panel/hood/deck lid, etc, etc.......Key word is THIN layer!

apply it thin as how you would apply KSG/AJ

Ya,the #16 is hard to remove.But will try using a polishing bonnet with D/A to remove it.

I too, have never had any problems with 16#,are you using a foam type applicator to apply or a cloth?

I am using the meguiar foam applicator pad to apply #16.Why?
