Just a quickie if you can help.

Can I leave a good quality wax (megs or similar) on a car over night and then buff off the next day.

Will it do any good or is it not advisable

Thanks

As long as it's inside shouldn't be a problem.

I'd still be worried about dust settling on car and then being "polished" into the surface, indoors or outside.

My dads out at the moment but I don't think it is worth it tbh. 1/2 hour for a wax that needs to glaze over is just fine and as Well fans says there's always the possibility of settling dust etc.

We don't do dust up here Bob. Too windy laugh Seriously though Carl, have done this on more than one occasion and neve a swirl problem as long as there's no dust about. Normal garage should be fine.

Thanks Lads - Obviously it will be garaged overnight and I thought it might be a good idea just to leave the wax on overnight and then polish off in the morning

Did mine like that last night with Meguiars NXT Tech Wax and polished off this morning. Came up a treat
