I waxed the car the other day (a bizarre spring here in DC, weatherwise), using Mequirs wax.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello All, I waxed the car the other day (a bizarre spring here in DC, weatherwise), using Mequirs wax. Everything looked fine, no wax left of the car. Ever since, I seem to get bizzare white specs and streaks, which buff off but it is a real pain. They return. Anyone ever heard of this condition? It is like eczema of the Porsche. Thanks, Ed

POST 2Original post

yeah - next time switch one of the brands that don't leave that white residue. I use victoria yellow wax http://www.prestigecarcareproducts.com/description.html but there are many others that you can read about in many other threads. I think zymol and souvereign products get good reviews from some.

POST 3Original post

Did you polish first? Because sometimes if you leave a little polish on by mistake and then wax over it, you'll have problems.

POST 4Original post

i have yet to wax my car since it is so new, but i know when i towel dry it it has a waxy white residue if i rub the towel instead of blot it off, must have something to do with how it comes from the factory

POST 5Original post

Sometimes fabric softeners left on the towels will leave a residue.

POST 6Original post

May have waxed over an older cheaper wax. Did you use M 26 yellow? The fabric softener is correct also.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

no polish - not sure what the previous wax was (my first waxing). I suppose the solution is to wash with Dawn, then try again?

POST 8Original post

Yes, the old dish soap trick works great. Just make sure to follow with polish AND wax. The polish prepares the paint and then the wax protects it.

POST 9Original post

Maguirs #7 glaze and #26 yellow wax is good. Also Zymol, not the blue stuff from Walmart. The actual Zymol advertised in car entusiasts magazines.
