    I just don't want 2 hours of crap falling on the vehicle before I do an AW wipe down...

    Anybody?

    I was told to leave nuba out in the sun after it's application/buffed off to let it sweat...no that isn't a good idea?

    joep Welcome to Detailing

    when using the term let it sweat.... are you saying to let the oils in the wax evaporate ?

    Yes. Apply the wax and buff it off, and over the next 4 or so hours it would sweat anything leftover out. What I seem to be reading is that the sweating can go into the next day? I plan to use FG after the 4 hours but don't want ti to sweat the next day.

    Only thing I have had luck with, cold water and a soft waffle weave.
    I actually feel the QD adds more material to the car to smear around. I've had it with carnaubas, they are dust magnets in the spring.
