Hi All,
I really screwed up using a 6" and a 4" polisher while waxing my car. A couple of times I lifted the polishers off the car before I turned them off and got little dots of wax all over the cars hood, trunk and sides. I didn't go over the areas but let the dots dry along with all the wax I laid down on the car. I thought I removed them when I buffed off the wax, you cant see them but when you rub your hand over the effected areas you can feel them still. Btw, the car was dolphin smooth when I started the waxing so I know it's wax spots.

The question I have is can I clay the car out to remove the wax bumps? If not how do I remove them without having to rewax the car again.

Thanks
Mike
 
If you clay, you would be removing some of the wax and would have to re-wax. Have you tried a quick detailer?
 
If your slinging wax you probably used too much as well man but if its just wax you shouldn't bother honestly if its only a feel thing I wouldn't even mess with it. If its that bothersome you could try a quick detailer to wipe it down see if that helps otherwise you could strip the wax off with an IPA wipe down, dawn wash, something along those lines basically start over then rewax.
 
I'll try the quick detailer and see if it takes out the bumps if not I'll leave it till the fall when I strip it down to the paint and polish it out
 
Or you could try just a simple wash, which all of us with our vehicles need sooner, or later
 
I tried quick detailer this morning with no luck. I'll try washing it next and see what happens

If washing doesn't do it, just leave it alone and re-wax a few weeks from now. If it bothers you, then strip with a paint cleaner and wax again.
