Do you still need to wax the car after waterless washing?

Washing is never a replacement for waxing, but making sure your car is clean will lengethn the health of your paint and clear coat.

You can. Waterless wash is the same as washing without water. Spray will make it smooth so if you wax it too just will be extra smooth and shinny.

Though the waterless washing does not give the car the sort of finish that would result from Simonize or custom waxing, I found that the appearance is nicely finished and separate waxing is not necessary - unless someone were looking to drive in a parade or display it in a car show.

You can, but it won't stick for long. If you're just after some 'extra shine' after washing the car, just use one of the Quick finish sprays, less effort, and just as effective as wax on an Opti-coated car.

It's a light wax quick waterless wash, very watery in consistency. Works great between full detailed washes, for example when birds target your car!

Never. And I've used a California Duster for over 20 years on 2 cars. You might see a bit of a waxy line when a duster is new if you rub harder. It's a great way to prepare to wash your car...follow with a damp Mystic Maid and you're done, all in the garage using little water. I never go to a car wash!!!

I leave the wax in and reuse it. Just plug it in a few hours ahead and it should be fine.

You do not need to wax after it's applied. It will leave a very nice protective shine that will mirror images back at you. Great product! I will purchase again...

Why not? Unlike paste wax, there is no white residue. The product goes on as a water diluted wax. I spray a light dampness on a microfiber towel, then a light spray on the area I am waxing, light spreading until it dries, shines, more light wiping if there are any marks. It keeps it looking like new. If you don't keep the car waxed, you need to do it well to get the surface smooth, but if you don't wash the wax away, and keep the wax coating up, it can look fresh waxed for months. I have never used soap on my car (Tesla) and the paint protection film and the naked paint both look like new after a year.

This is polish not wax.. It helps take out swirl marks and heavy water spots. I always do this first then I apply carnauba turtle wax after I finish polishing and make sure you remove the polish the same way you would wax a car. After your done polishing and then wax your car it will look like brand new.

You'd want to do detailer first. But, you'd be better off foaming it with the wand and using a microfiber mit. It'd be cheaper and get a better clean if you have to use a car wash.

I always wash the car with soap and water first, then chamois the car dry. I've never used soapy water with my clay bar. I always use the waterless quick-detailing spray from Meguiars or Mothers when using the clay, then wipe with a fresh microfiber towel as I go.

I use chain wax personally. You could use the wash first but make sure to use a lubricating agent on the chain afterward

I would give the car a very good wash first to remove as much of the mold and mildew as possible. Remember this wax has a very fine abrasiveness to it and I can see it removing mold/mildew but I would go easy with it at first. For best results us a buffing drill that has low RPM's, take your time and with a little patients I'm sure your cars finish will look great.

Depends on how porous the trim is. It could stain, so just wipe it off quickly. If you want stain free then use ultimate wax.

Very good. I am fixing some scratches and swirl marks. First, you clean the car with a waterless solution in the winter or garden hose in the summer and dry with a microfiber towel. Second, you put the Meguiar cleaner wax on with a polishing pad and buff the water spots gently. Third, you clean the residuals from buffing.

How old is the car and has it been out in the sun? Be sure to wash it and let dry. The wax should be applied in the shade and cool to the surface . thad was the way I did it!.

No, I didn't use one. A good microfiber pad/towel is the best at buffing the wax out. That first over buffing towels if by hand. The only problem I had was knowing if I got all the wax off. White wax dried on a white car Do much more smaller sections at the time to make sure you got it all off
