Wax on wax off wax on wax off

I cleaned my car today, washed in power wash with, sponge on the soap cycle, air dried by hammering it up and down the ring road, Polished with Megs Tech wax applied with Sponge thingy, and removed using old boxer shorts. No camera so no pics but results are pretty good its shiny, bit patchy in places where i've done a half ass job, but not bad, Took me 45 minutes.

lol, looks ok to me, I just had a look out the window at the roof and its kind of cloudy, how long do i need to leave Tech wax on for before buffing it off?? cant describe teh cloudyness its like i havn't removed all the wax properly, i did give it some elbow grease, maybe not enough, LOL

The roof may have still been damp. I tend to wash and dry the whole car, and then wax all the other panels first and leave the roof to last, which gives it time to properly dry off... seems to avoid cloudiness that I used to get by doing it straight after drying.

nope i figured it out while having a bifta on the balcony, its reet along the middle of the roof, and its where i havn't applied any/as much wax, LOL
