'ello,

I have a '99 Prelude. It is black. I have a problem waxing the front bumper piece. The guy I bought it from drove it on the highway a lot, so it has small dings all over the front. Whenever I wax it, the wax gets in the little dings and leaves white speckles. It looks horrible, and is the only flaw on the otherwise perfect body. Any suggestions?

TIA

what kind of wax are you using?

MellowGold

I have used a few types, but lately I used TurtleWax Emerald Series. I found it in my basement and it is from 1997 :hsugh:

Nothing? Nobody has ANY idea of how to fix this problem?

You can remove wax build up with some Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, but keep in mind you'll be removing protection left behind as well, but this should do a good job getting it out of those chip marks.

I usually dillute my ISA mix with water on a 1:1 ratio.

Hope this helps.

Repaint your front bumer?

I can get it off, but I was wondering if there is a wax that will not leave white marks? A really clear wax or something?

Meguires NXT Gen wax shouldnt be visible at all, I use it all the time. I like it because it doesnt produce any dust, goes on (and buffs off)easy, and seems to last forever. Try it, I don't think you'll be dissappointed

P21s Concours Carnauba Wax will not leave a residue behind and the gloss and depth is right up there with the best. It's very easy to use and is known for not leaving a white film on trim or other non-painted areas.

Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
