Hey I got a black '02 civic and use Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 paste to wax it.
I recently went into a paint-shop to buy some touch-up paint. The guy working there had a look at my car and said the wax I've used was (something like) a stone-cut wax, and said that my car's paint was in too good a condition for it - that I should buy a polish instead.. He said stone-cut wax (or whatever it's called) causes swirl-marks or some shit like that lol.. He also said that you shouldn't be waxing it like every month..
1. Can anybody confirm this? Anybody have any recommendations?
2. Since my car's black it picks up dust quite easily. I've been told that just wiping it with a cotton cloth is scratching the paint, and to get it off you just have to get a car-wash.. But I don't want to be going to the car-wash every week. Does anybody know any alternatives?
