Nattys Red Hot Wax

Beemerboy

Just One More Coat
I had two cans of Nattys red one was at near bottom and the other about the same, I decided to combine them. I placed contents of both into one container and ran it in the microwave for about 1 to 1.5 minutes...very soft so I used my fingers to smooth it out. Then I started waxing the car using a foam pad...the wax was super easy to spread and applied very uniform...much different than when cold.

Don't think this is anything ground breaking but certainly makes me think about how the wax reacts warm rather than a cold application.


Thoughts?
 
I was using warmed wax for a while, but found that I used a lot more than with cold. I'm not sure if more of it was absorbing into the pad I was using, but I definitely saw a difference. Like Dave said, it is really easy to spread a uniform layer. I don't recall seeing a huge difference in the final product though.
 
I wonder if it produced a signifacant difference. Since warm it may "flow" into imperfections/minor rid, etc.
 
Thanks! The next time I use Natty's I'll warm it up and apply it using my fingertips like I've done with other soft waxes in the past.:passout:
 
Sorry I didn't take any pics of the process, but agree with AB that you seem to use more wax when its warm...

The car came out looking like a million bucks for an older Camry..I ended up putting two coats on
 
Seriously, I wonder if we would get a combination of effects if we mixed em.

Who's willing to try ?

You are the KING WAX WASTER YOU TRY FIRST.It's like the life cereal commercial "LETS GET MIKEY" :fart::funny::strong::nana::kick::headspin
 
Yep
and its one of the easiest wax's to use.

Great stuff, look up some of my detail threads, you'll see
 
How is the durability of Natty wax ? Does it hold up to carwash soaps like the drive through touchless .

Like Ron said look at his threads, he's our residence wax waster club president

As for car wash soaps it holds up just fine, just make sure you are using car soap and not dish soap...no wax will stand up to dish soap

I felt the same thing. I had a black can of meguiars gold class (paste). I used it fresh out of the freezer and it went on hard but worked well. I used very little on the first car I did which surprised me because it was an Expedition. The next day I did a '91 Accord, much smaller and quicker than the Expedition but I left the can in the sun and it was very hot. It went on so smooth and came out looking amazing but I used at least 3x more wax. I pretty much finished the can.
 
I might just be able to try, though I am not as proficient as most of you at paint correction as of yet, so I won't or can't tell you if there will be a difference. Maybe I'll try when I get back from my vacation next week?
