Friday I finally got around to polishing the car. I clayed her again, then used my new PC and M205 polish. I applied a sealant (Detailer's Poli-Coat) by hand with a foam pad, and that part of the effort seemed to go well too.
I then went right into applying caranauba wax. Blackfire Midbight Sun. By the time the sun went down, the car was looking absolutely stunning. (At least to my eyes) - those of you who compete and win "best of show awards" may find fault with the job I did, but hey, I'm just learning the fine art of detailing!
While I was working on other things today, I recall hearing that the sealant should "cure" for a day or so before wax is applied. :uh oh:
So that's my question - was all my work WASTED by applying wax too soon? Do I need to start over? The car looks great, but I'm anxious to hear what you all think.
