Kind of a random question but wanted to know if I was just imagining things or not...
I "wax" up the LR3 twice a year with Finish First polish. I like it because it goes on/off easy and seems to leave good results. I'll reapply when I notice that water is no longer forming droplets on my hood, which ends up being Spring and Fall - good times to reapply anyway.
So, a month ago (still was getting nice droplets on my hood after a rain or wash) I was short on time so I went through one of those gas station automatic car washers instead of the usual hand wash. I'll tend to go through these in the winter, but skip them in the warmer weather. This one was a combination of brushless and high pressure. The next time water hit my car I noticed is laid down smooth...didn't seem to be any wax/polish left on the car?
Was I just over thinking this...or do those high pressure jets strip off the product?
