    if you leave it over night, it wont do anything, wax isn't time related. After it has dried its ready to come off. The wax has done its thang

    as for wax. I find mothers carnauba wax works the best for home use. Easy apply, easy to take off, best results.

    Re: detail question

    first off, you need to visit the az detailers forum. or www.detailersdomain.com or www.griotsgarage.com

    there is no reason to leave the wax on there for longer than the time it takes to dry off.
    heres what i do:
    wash with dawn dishsoap
    clay with the clay bar of your choice
    io like to was it again but this time with regualr car soap
    polish
    wax or seal

    for the inside, i use this kit and i think it is perfect and well priced
