Is it safe to wax Crossfire white paint?
Is it safe to wax Crossfire white paint?
Hi Guys,
As you know I am looking for a Crossfire and I have found 2 manuals: a dark grey one and a white one (sorry if I used rudimental paint naming).
Anyway, I think that the white paint is not metallic and I remember reading on wax directions that flat paints should not be waxed.
I am sorry if I sound ignorant about the issue.
Is it safe to use wax, polish and use other light rubbing compounds on the white?
Thanks a lot guys,

Thanks for the info.
If I go with the Crossfire I guess I have to choose between white or dark grey
Thanks a lot

I will check both car and see which is in the best condition. The white one has one of those black plastic cover that the previous owner had against rock chips.
I really hope that I will like the manual because I like this car lots
