Lets talk Wax

Currently I am using Collinite 885 paste wax, which is supposed to be the cats pajamas in terms of marine wax.

However, this stuff is thick, like a glue stick, removal is also less than pleasant.

I am using a Porter Cable 7424 to spread and remove the wax.


However, I feel like it is going on TOO thick, and creating a haze.

I just buffed my boat yesterday thinking it was oxidizing, but with the scratch of a nail on the black, it exposed a shine, this leads me to believe it was wax build up causing the haze.

So, what wax do you guys use, how often do you wax, what are your methods, and do you strip the wax every time you re apply, or throw a coat over the existing wax?
