To me, he is funny as Heck, but it took me a while to get it...

I think he is just jerking your chain..But I cannot say what is in someone's mind.

But he is rudely funny.. I used to think...."Did he just say that " ? But he makes me laugh every time..

So don't take it personal...Again .02 cents from a newbie.

Damn, I am now on his Ignore list too..
thanks for the follow up.

Plastic shine? Not mine. Just a beautiful shine.

I was always told 6 months, but that is probably just opinion based. The fact is, you always waited a while with a new car before you waxed it. I think I am old enough also -- born in 1960.

lolz @ kenchan.

@k20z3, you should probably clean it off with a clay bar before applying wax. You'd be surprised how much crap and rail dust gets on the paint while being transported. I'd personally stick to a high quality carnuba. I've used Adam's Americana or Swissvax, both excellent products. The Swissvax was a bit pricey, but a tub goes a long way.
