HI everyone, i wanted to know if it is bad to use a pure wax like meguiars #26 too much on single stage paint (by too much i don't mean applying thick, i am referring to the frequency of applications, my car gets around 4 coats each month), i just felt that the paint develops a whitish layer from this, though it stays good with Gc (which has light cleaners).
 
I don't know what "Gc" is but since you say it has light cleaners you are probably disrupting the LSP layer a lot; so following "Gc" with #26 is fine.
 
GC = gold class paste wax, yes it is a daily runner, its on the road most of the day and exposed at night
 
Yes, you are getting the white haze from wax build up. If you stripped the wax and then applied this wouldn't happen but to do that 4 times a month would be crazy.

Why not use a sealant and then a long lasting wax instead of M26? 26 is a nice wax but not for a DD parked outside. If you want to stick with Meg's try some M21 topped with Meg's UPW. Blackfire, Duragloss and Collonite are also good choices and will last much longer than 26.
 
thank you brother , this is what i wanted to hear, we just wax so much because the the sun here is so strong and then there is so much dirt, the car needs washing every second day so we wax just to be careful.

i will go for #21 then, the meguiars products just arrived in pakistan (thank you 3m) so now they can be bought at a reasonable price.

btw if somebody waxed a clear coated car this often would it have the same effect?
