Default after 5 hours and a sore arm, my car is washed, claybar'd and waxed. pic tomorrow. question:

Does anyone use Griot's Best of Show wax? Do you find it hard to take off once applied?

I put it on, let it sit about 3-5 minutes, then take it off but it's HARD to take off!!! I have to use a LOT of pressure back and forth a million times!

Is Blitz easier to remove? I'd like to stick with natural wax for the deeper gloss (instead of synthetic)

Default One Grand Blitz is EZ. I just did a clay and wax on the P-car...

the entire process took 2 1/2 hours including wash (partly because it's a smaller car).

Default I find Griot's BOS to look great, but doesn't last long. Try a polymer sealant like McGuire's >

It looks great, wipes of pretty easy, and lasts a long time.
