Wax? ( sry no pics :\ )

[shock_core]

I put Mothers Cabanura on my car in Atl last weekend, 4 hours but i love the stuff. Usally how long does wax last? and if i have crap on my paint, like dead bugs stains or something, if i rub that off, does it rub off the wax?

the wax could last a week, it could last a year. depends on how/if you prepped the surface, how you wash your car after that, the car's environment, if it's garaged, if it's garaged a lot, etc.

basically, the less you drive and less you wash and less it's outside, the longer it will last. my car is outside, exposed to all kinds of ****, 24/7 (except right now because my dad has a rental car so he's just leaving that junker neon outside). anyway, my car is outside 24/7 and i use meguiar's gold class. it will usually need another waxing after a month, but i'm a perfectionist and i'm obsessive over what my car looks like. it always has to be spotless and i have to be able to see my reflection pretty well in it.

yeah, i was just curious cos my old wax would die after like a week and i'd have to redo it, so thanks! i'm like you, i'm anal about my cars shine
