[QUOTE="Rruuff Day, post: 129206, member: 2217"] Sorry guys. Had a fork in my road and was away from the forum for a bit. In answer...... Murray. I don't intentionally strip the wax unless it's clay bar time (which I haven't done to the C7 yet.) If you lovingly and gently run your fingertips over the paint and it feels anything less than glass smooth, you probably need to clay bar which will strip the wax and surface contaminants, and is much more gentle than polish (as long as you use lots of lubricant). My C7 is still glass smooth... no contaminants on the surface yet. I do wash the car with Dawn and I expect it may take some or all the wax off but that isn't my main intent. Wash, dry, wax, buff, and Lucas SlickMist spray detailer in between waxes. Derek wins.... (although there was no prize)... I thought I had spotted them all but the headlight lense flags surprised me.... That being said, there is pretty close to 575 individual Corvette flags on the C7. [ATTACH=full]15778[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
