The professor, "Wax does layer!"

IMHO wax can only be layered to a certain extent. If you were to apply wax on a garage queen (that never gets driven) every 2 days for a year I seriously doubt you'll end up with a thick wax layer on the paint irregardless of what type of car wax/sealant is used.



Keep in mind that every time you wipe the paint you'll remove a significant amount of wax off the surface. In other words unless the wax is very hard you won't be able to layer because your cloth will remove it most of it anyways.



Again IMHO the only thing you're achieving by applying a wax/sealant, every couple of days, is the peace of mind, relaxation and enjoyment it provides. ;)
 
GeekySteve, Yes there is a "Y" in the name brand and there is also an "M" in the other brand. Can you read between the lines? I think Steve knows exactly what is not being said here!



By way of law, I cannot comment further.

UPDATE- Fellas, I'm sorry to report the Professor's findings will not be available for some time. It appears to be about money and one very well known company has a specific wax that was discovered to have damaging ingredients. Can you read between the lines? I don't know what else to say. I feel let down because I was promised insider information. Anyhow, as soon as I hear, you will be the first to know.:xyxthumbs

Hmm, maybe I'm not reading between the lines... You only made mention of one company, and one specific product. I get which one that is by way of the "Y" in the name... Is the "M" in the particular product's name?
 
One of those two companies (I'll leave it to the imagination) has a penchant for throwing lawsuits around, especially when someone challenges their long-lived-line-of-hearty-BS.... It's a shame that they've started to believe their own marketing and BS.



Actually, you don't really even have to challenge them; you only have to tell the truth, and in no time, you'll be getting letters and threats from their lawyers.



My suggestion to them was to spend less money on lawyers and more money on R&D.



But, what do I know.... ;)

Well Ray, after reading your most recent posts... I can read between the lines and I hope a majority of Autopians can also.

Can you PM me also? I hate this riddles, AND as for GeekySteve post about the bad attitude around lately here, I'm sure things should be as clear as watter.



Thanks.
 
I really dont see "waxes" as doing anything other than preserving what work has already been accomplished, unless cleaners are inherent of the product. But if there are no cleaners, I still believe there is benefit in layering. When i say "layering", im not talking about a deck of cards here, im simply implying one could reapply, weekly, or bi monthly, and have additional protection. I think layering for waxes and sealants are two different things.....
 
Mr. Phillips, you have your opinion and that's fine. It's no secret the company you work for had and has a monopoly. It's also no secret the founder and founders' are extremely concerned and worried about their personal image. Intimidation by legal means is among the favorites among the M's. I have seen the tests and so has Steve and your comments will remain as I see them, as "comments". However, if I were you Mr. Phillips, I would be very careful how I would respond to the questions.:nono
 
That is not nice :nono Little Ray Ray what did daddy tell you about that finger !!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike don't play that game w/him we are better than THAT ALOT BETTER go back and read about the lotion example and layering;) :D Do I need to say any more:confused:
 
Please, lets get back on topic which is "wax layering". All I'm saying is wax can be layered, not like Zaino with a million coats, but the molecules in wax do bond on top of each other.



The Professor knows, I'm just the messenger here.:rolleyes:
 
Usually its the messenger who gets their teeth kicked in. Easier to beat on them than taking on directly the person (or company) that created the message.



Be careful here.

I think jgv has a good point here. Threads which are based on secretive information(recall an old thread with somebody claiming to have some kind of inside information about klasse...) will rarely end peacefully. There is so much speculation and people like to insinuate things. When you tempt somebody to read between the lines, they may not be reading the same thing as you. That misunderstanding alone leads to problems.

I'm not trying to start trouble here but seriously be careful of what? I might be the newbie here but all I see here is alot of alegations being made without anything to back up the claim. If the claims could be substantiated these threads would likely not go off track. When you start a post, point a finger and then make a claim that isn't obvious to the average person it's human nature to ask questions. Enough of the cloak and dagger lay it out on the table or drop it.

What's going on here?!? Wasn't the original topic about whether or not wax layers? What's that got to do with personal image, intimidation, and legal action? You really had me scratching my head when you mentioned that there was a lot of legal hoo-ha for this 'professor' to deal with in order to publicize his findings. Plenty of other people have been able to state their discoveries without getting into trouble given that they clearly describe their test conditions and that they do not let their own personal opinions or slander cloud their statements.
 
Ok, this thread has officially been jacked..............

C'mon folks, if we wanted to hear this, we would me on MSN chat, now lets get back to the topic.............:bounce
