Wax On

I've been having troubles ever since I switched to the liquid wax. I used to use mequiars nxt tech wax in a solid and applied it by hand and the wax would stick on for a long time. Now that I bought a buffer I switched to the same wax just in a liquid, and it seems that this stuff doesnt stick around as long. Whats up?

Any good liquid waxes out there?

By the way... this stuff usually costs 16 bucks a bottle here, but I found it at target for 3.00 bucks one time, they had to have made a mistake.

The stuff I really liked is no longer made. :(
I use meguairs quick wax when I'm feeling lazy. It works about as you would expect. It goes on quick and easy, does a decent job for a while.

04 black edge, do you mean wax it, then buff, then wax it again? Or wax it, wax it, then buff?
