Waxing questions...

I live in Oklahoma, and as such, it's always hotter than fourty hells. I know I can't wax my truck when it's too hot out, but how hot is too hot? Right now it's 86F, but I do have my truck parked in a garage with an overhead fan on (the kind that blows air out the top of the building, not a celing fan), and my truck's not been running today, other than to move it inside.

Is it safe to wax it right now, or do I need to wait until later?

I'm no expert, but that sounds like fair game to me.

Xabrophazon,

Welcome to the forum. I'm an Edmondite, too.

Your truck should not be hot to the touch. The garage should be the answer to this. Meguairs has a great site that gives tons of tips on getting the best out of your truck's finish. After spending a lot of time there myself, I'm not satisfied with just a wax anymore.

Good luck!

Micah
