I just applied a coat of #26 to my truck, but I have a question, how much product should I have expected to use? After reading that Zaino only requires an ounce a coat, I think I used quite a bit more then an ounce per coat. I think I got a pretty nice shine out of it though.

Also... (can't you tell I've never waxed anything before?), how do you deal with the plastic pieces like the bed rail caps, the bit by the hood and around the windows? Are you supposed to wax those pieces as well, or simply just wax around them?

WAX AROUND THEM!!! Those things are a beast to get wax off of!

I use probably a 1/8 - 1/16 each time I apply. Honestly, the thinner the coat of #26, the better results I've had.

Yeah......I noticed that

I put a rag in hot water and the white marks came off.

Well, thanks guys. I'll try to cut down on how much I use.

1/8th to 1/16th of a bottle... Needed to clarify...

Glad to have helped...

You might try putting another coat on tomorrow... it will increase the depth!
