Thanks, Mater. That DOES help.

So, unless someone gives me a compelling reason not to do so, I will plan on swirling the wax on the large areas. I think I can get it on more evenly and can do a better job of getting every spot covered by swirling.

I want to get some protection on that finish. I need some wax on the car, so that I can more easily remove the bug guts.

P.S.

Some people consider those bugs on the front bumper and windshield to have been pretty brave, but I don't think they have the guts to do it again.

I enjoyed taking mine to an automatic wash yesterday evening, paying a few bucks for "The Works," later spraying foamy tire gloss on. Looks great to me!
