Hi,

I posted about my unwaxed car bottom and the road salts, etc. I have one other question. If I washed my car and hand dried it immediately so the water didnt freeze, could I apply wax to the car? I worry that wax on the freezing cold surface wont adhere like it does when it dries on in the warm weather. Itll instead kind of freeze to the car surface and be a pain to remove.

Does anyone have any experience regarding waxing in below freezing temperatures?

Thanks,

JMH

That is a good question.

I would register at the discussion forum on www.showcargarage.com and ask Mike Phillips that question.

He is the wax expert at Meguiar's, and that is his personal website.

He is a great guy and will surely help you.
