    First light color vehicle I've ever owned... I always use carnuba wax from a tin and can easily see where been applied and buffed off on a dark car. I'm wondering, how easy it is to see dried wax on a white vehicle?

    Pretty easy. It will look dull, and when its buffed off, nice and glossy

    Once you put the wax on, you will easily see where it is.
