Removing Wax off Matte Black Paint

Removing Wax off Matte Black Paint
I have a matte blackness truck the paint shop said information technology would be ok to put wax. And then I tried a small area and it was fine so I did my hood and I went to remove the wax and it will not come off.

Information technology merely left white marks all over the hood. How can I go this off ????

A) Apply more of the same product to the infected area and wipe off before it has a chance to dry
B) Wash the car with a heavy APC mix

That body store gave you bad advice

Do not wax matte paint!
* Question tho, what about a clear sealant or blanket like opti-seal or opti-guard? hmm...

I wonder if some IPA and a pressure launder will make it come off. The bad thing is that if you lot scrub too hard it volition get out marks.
You should tell the paint store to cease giving that communication to people

You could use Swissvax Opaque paint cleaner followed past Opaque wax. Works well on the hood and wing of a 70 cuda I detail for shows.

Take it back to the body shop and tell them to re-paint it for giving y'all bad communication.

Re: Wax will notcome off my truck

why would you desire to wax flat paint? its suppose to expect flat not shiny, wax volition add shiny-ness to flat paint. So far, the merely thing ive seen that keeps flat pigment "flat" is cquartz
