but I can't see the wax!!! How do you guys with WHITE trucks do this??? Is there a wax with color in it??

I knew I should have traded this whale in for a black one! Just so I can see the wax! :)

I have a white corolla. you do a lot'o'squinting while peering down the bodywork to see swirlies spots to wipe off. Then go inside and rest your eyes.

Take some Mothers Carnuba wax and heat it up so it melts. then mix in some blue food coloring. That may be the dumbest Idea I have ever had but if I were asking the question I would try it.

wanna know the easiest way to do this ???? this is gonna sound so dumb, but its by far the best way...

wax it at dusk, and use the street lights as light(park right under it, or any other type of bright light)... it will almost be like waxing a black truck, the wax stands out like an freaking skin tight shirt on a fat chick. just do a walk around and look down the body panels.

like i said.. i know it sounds dumb and such but try one time, youll be amazed how easy it is to see it then

Easiest way, use the new Turtle Wax "ICE" auto-wax. I use that now (dont have a white titan), but it is safe on all finishes and can even be left on without any harmful residue or paint problems. I would just do a small section at a time with is and you wouldnt have to worry about it. Or use a wax while you dry product.

Just my .02

I think the Wax you have been using has worked wonders

Yup...but I am turning over a new leaf. My truck will stay clean forever! :)
Mud is no longer a temptation. No mud. No Mud. No mud. Repeat until it sinks in my head.

That mud was a good protectant coat IMO. :)

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I have the ice, I got 95% of it waxed with Meguires NXT paste so maybe I'll go over that with the ice. But I really wanted to get a good coat on it so the bugs would just slide off. Maybe I'll cover it in Vaseline!

Ask Transformer............... I think his truck may have had some some wax on it at one time or another.

if you wear sunglasses with polarizing lens you'll be able to see the wax without squinting!

yes there's all types of wax and colors. but your best bet is to just wipe everything down twice. im a detailer in a shop and i take my cars outside in the sun to see if i missed any. the longer it has to dry the more it stands out aswell
