how to remove wax residue from cracked clearcoat?
normally, my car has a 10 foot paint job. but the last 70 degree day we had i decided to wash and wax her, sort of to say im sorry for not driving you for 6 months. anyway, i never noticed before that my clearcoat basically has a huge spiderweb all over the car, and the wax got in and wouldn't come out. anybody have any suggestions on making my 30 foot paint look like the 10 foot it used to be?

well this probably doesn't help you but...
i've always been a meguires guy... i tried some other waxes too, and i notice in cracks i always have this yellow residue left over after waxing... especially by my emblems and stuff... looks ugly if you ask me...
i'm personally now switching to f113 because it goes on clear! clear = no visual defects... so maybe you might want to do the same? not trying to sell the product or anything, lol, but it sounds like it sells itself.

i'll try the f113, sounds good. but does anyone know how to get out wax residue that's embedded in the tiny cracks in the clearcoat?
