I'm not familiar with that specific product, but with a lot of waxes you're supposed spread it on, then wipe that "haze" off with a seperate towel.

It should always do it while you're applying the Royal Blue.

That's really weird. So, you applied the wax with one towel, wiped it off with the other, and it STILL left the haziness?

sounds like it overcured or something. If it dries for too long it is hard as hell to get off.

That or maybe you just needed a new rag.

I am going to buy an automatic buffer thingy tonight, and do some trial and error work on my hood. I hate all the hard hand labor it takes to get an older paint job back to life.
