It probably just needs to be buffed harder. Wax is funny like that.

I did the same thing.... I had to cut-polish the panels i "waxed". Took a long time and alot of wax, but it worked...:thumbsup:

yeah dish soap like googe said will take it off, wax is like grease for dawn and it "cuts through it" ;)

ya if you let zymol dry it doesn't come off. your supose to do a 1' x 1' section at a time. buff on, buff off 30 seconds later :banghead:

and don't wax in direct sunlight as it basically will cook the wax onto your car and it will take allot buffing to get it off.

Turtle wax is cheap and looks pretty good. For a perfect wax job, use mcguiars (sp) gold class wax. It looks freakin great.

gold class meg. wax with meguires microfiber cloth. no scrubing required, apply it like normal (takes time) then wipe it off, so easy to get off..

Don't use dish soap.

Buff hard. If that doesn't work, use a clay bar.

Nothing wrong with using it to completely strip the wax and other crap right off BUT you have to put another protectant back on after.

Is Zymol actually good stuff if you apply it on right? From, past experience, I like 3M wax, it leaves a really nice shine.

I just waxed my mk4 golf with mothers and it turned out great. only 12 bucks and very easy to use.
