You can apply it wet. I sprayed a wet Cortina underside once and it appeared to rain as the water was pushed off

I find waxoyl too messy and troublesome. I prefer Bilt Hamber products personally.

Whatever you decide to use, as long as the car is dry you'll be fine. I personally wouldnt apply it to a soaking wet car but a few hours after rain should be ok.

Seconded, with a side order of "And don't forget that applying it to the bits you see isn't applying it to the bits where it'll do some good."
