  • 2nd layer of wax - how long do I leave it on?

    I applied two layers of wax on my car. First one I waxed, waited 10-20 minutes, wiped, and now just applied the second. How long should I leave it on for?

    as long as it takes to dry/haze

    most likely same as first coat

      till it hazes, depending on which wax and temperature will be the deciding factors on when it will haze

      although some waxes (pretty sure not meguiars though) can be wiped on then wiped right back off, no drying time needed
