..Agreed. I just recently used it on a badly planned Meteor PF, and it took old wax and chemicals great. Then I went to waxing it.

Quoted from cody_chunn:That didn't happen until I cleaned and polished with other products.
I'm not making this up...
Wait, what do you think "polishing" does? The Naptha got rid of the wax the pf on it. What you had left was a raw, unprotected playfield. They're not shiny - that's what clearcoating is for.
Quoted from TronGuy:This thread has me wondering if I am doing this completely wrong or not.
I got my nib batman 66 yesterday. I opened up the carnuba wax and rubbed a coat onto the payfield. 20-30 minutes later I took a clean cloth to it and tried to "buff it out".
Maybe that process is ok?
So next time I want to wax it, it sounds like I need to be using something to remove the old wax?
sorry guys noob pinball owner (again)
You can wax over wax, no issue.
Anything deeper, then you'll wanna use naptha to clean off and clean up - if necessary.
