ummm ... that has to be the worst thing i've ever heard.


try a clay bar ... if you don't have the time, dawn dishwashing soap is really easy on a car and will remove old, layered wax too.

it's because you're stripping down your paint. rubbing alcohol is used to prime surfaces for bonding because it completely rips the surface back down to its original form.
