Applying any wax too thick can make removal difficult. So can trying to remove it before its time. For example, NXT needs to be applied VERY THIN and allowed to set up thoroughly before removal - you do the whole truck, then go back and start removing it in the same panel order.

Just so you know, the guy above my post is the one who taught me to use the IPA 50/50 wipe downs....they can really help you and also make you over the top OCD>

What is the cheapest way/place to buy Isopropyl Alcohol in bulk?
I can get 2 quarts (IA)70% from BJ's Wholesale but it could\should be cheaper by the gallon? Most hardware stores sell denatured Alcohol by the gallon but that also seems too expensive?
Suggestions?

Not sure if straight rubbing alcohol is good for the clear coat but...
You dont want to run a dirty rag over your paint so you gotta rinse and change rags frequently.
When I strip wax mixing it 50\50, (32oz's) I may have enough to do my hood rinsing frequently and not using the bottom third of the container im rinsing in.
I would rather waste ¼ of the solution than to scratch my paint or reintroduce contaminants.
I may be doing it wrong since I mix it in a quart container wipe it down and just frequently change microfiber towels.
