what should i use to take off the old wax? and I know what you mean about blowing off paint I had a 65 ford and the paint was bubling and I knocked a good bit off of it so ihave developed pretty good pressure washer skills to prevent paint loss,

Polish or a wax remover (NOT a cleaner wax) and clay will remove the old wax. PLEASE read the how to I linked in the other post on the previous page. It shoudl tell you everythign you need to know.

That's odd... Never heard of that happening. Anyway though, a Chevelle shoudl haev a single stage enamel, which is a different kind of paint job than the modern clearcoat paints most modern cars get from the factory.

Ive had my car detailed with and without a buffer. Buffer>anything else. The paint looks flawless...
