    I have a few carnauba wax questions..

    1. how long does it take to haze? I waited 20-25 mins before wiping off my nattys blue.. is this enough time? this was in the garage and it wasnt cold, it was a tiny bit warm. 2. how long will the wax last on the car before I should re apply it?

    cant get all scratches out..

    okay so ive compounded then polished twice.. but i cant get all the scratches out.. theres just a ffew lines running down in random areas.. should i just leave it? i dont see the point in polishing it over and over again if the car is about 95% scratch free.. what do u think?

    can you mix polishes on one pad?
