If you work the wax too much it will pull the paint. I brush it on with a chip brush and let sit for about 15-30 min. then buff lightly. Sometimes I do not buff at all...just let it cure. Hope this helps.molly susan stronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162403433284729474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284925404991319330.post-63332489144577573842011-04-20T14:30:03.988-05:002011-04-20T14:30:03.988-05:00wow! that is amazing... i love it!!!!wow! that is amazing... i love it!!!!hilary@oldhousetruelovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16119613568247849316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284925404991319330.post-34731718786286542072011-04-20T14:20:21.060-05:002011-04-20T14:20:21.060-05:00Oh Anita, I love the way that turned out!!
