Color bleed when waxing...

After cleaning the outside I thought I would try waxing a small area to see what the results would be. Well when the wax was applied to the different colors they carried onto the white, it does come off after some waxing. How can I stop this? Waxing 1 color at a time? As a side note the small section look pretty good to me.
Your expert advice please.

Bob,
With it being a 2000 Pinnacle, you might have some oxidation spots on the finish. Just use Bar Keepers Friend or Bon Ami to buff them out before applying the 303. But if your lucky, you will not have any!


How do you use the Bon Ami or Bar Keepers? The liquid or the dry powder?

Received my Aerospace 303 yesterday from Amazon and tried it this morning in a small area and I'm impressed! Can't wait to do the whole MH.

Rod, I've seen it at the Big Tent in Quartzites, AZ. (any January in the Northeast corner of the tent) I've seen it at Cabela's! You'll like it Rod very easy to work with I did a MSDS internet search on it and it has no petroleum products in it. It was developed by an Engineer at Boeing Aircraft in Seattle, WA. and it is what Boeing uses to shine there planes. You can google it to find the nearest store to you!

Fiberglass with a decal I guess.

Hi - Can you give a little more info? Is the area you're waxing painted, or a decal? Is it sheet metal, fiberglass, etc?

More details, and somebody can probably give you some ideas.
