on the bottle it usually says to polish in a cool shadey environment. most likely to prevent the wax from drying before you take it off. i dont know the implications of letting the wax dry but i'll let aaronng take care of that :)

Don't do it in the sun. The hot surface makes the paint very succeptible to forming new swirls.

lol i hope not, because there should be no comma after and :) also its grammar.



the other thing with washing in the sun is, often the foam dries out when you are washing, which can leave marks on your windscreen. much better and easier to wash in the shade

^ It appears you misread my post, losteg corrected your grammar, not me.

I was merely confused by losteg's post, that is all.
