spgull Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 When I purchased my 2008 Pebble Beach ES new from the dealer I had them install paint protection film on the front of the car, outside mirrors and side rocker panels. The product works great but shows the wax between the film and the painted surface. If I try to removing the wax too close to the line I peel the edge of the film away.But if I don't remove all the wax, it leaves a noticible line. Anybody got a solution?

elementau Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Not a problem for me. Use a rubber spatula from the kitchen and run it along the edge. That gets the white off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhawkin1 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Mine has been on for 36 months or so, and I do wax it or it gets yellow (my car is white). I always take a q-tip with a little goo-gone and run it along the edge gently and it removes the wax and or dirt line. Then I wipe it off with water. I have to be honest, it would make me nervous if an edge was coming up; that really shouldn't happen. It should be on there so good that it almost takes the paint with it if you try to remove it.

footdoc Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Use Zaino instead of wax....NO residue to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Not everybody likes the way Zaino looks though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footdoc Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 What not shiny enough ? Mine looks like its wet all the time with Zaino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Actually quite the opposite...too shiny. In my opinion Zaino gives a "plasticky" shine to the paint that robs it of its depth and luster, as do most other sealants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
