Wax on - Wax off
OK, so here's an interesting observation for you. While I was in Germany I applied a coat of Zymol Glasur to my car to protect it from rain, etc... Well, after two excruciating months of waiting, I finally received my car Wednesday night. Today I washed it for the first time, and I saw something rather strange. The water didn't bead at all on my hood, roof upper doors, upper fenders, etc..... Now anyone who's ever used Zymol knows that it makes water bead like you can't believe. Well, the only areas that were beading were the sides of the doors, trunk, tail, etc... Then I sprayed a little more water and I think I figured out why.
If I flooded the car with water, I could actually see sheets of water film where it was obviously wrapped in plastic. You can actually see a line on the sides where the plastic stopped and the beading begins. I can only assume that the protective plastic took my wax off the paint with it when it was removed.
Looks like I know what I'll be doing in my next free moment. Waxing my car again. But hey, that's cool. There is something very enjoyable about waxing a Cayman.
