Default Stickers on Top of Wax?

hey guys'

I'm planning on putting Graphics on my cars.

But have Zaino at First and now i'm uzing NXT on top of Zaino.

Just wondering if i need to Dawn the car to put on the graphic kits or just put it on and it'll be fine forever?

Advice from the expert will be a great help


Cheers
Yun

Not sure about expert qualifications but...

for applying graphics you want nothing on the surface. I recommend 100-percent isopropyl alcohol to clean the surface. After graphics are applied, wait 24 hours and wax as usual.

but anyway, you have nothing to worry about, so long as you don't want the graphics to stay on very long if you do, wash the car, use some paint cleaner then apply them and wax a day or two later (probably want to wax the non-graphic areas sooner to to protect them).

ps - check out Autopia - they have a free guidebook and great forums, i learned a lot through my roommate who's an avid reader there.

Thanks

Will Dawn strong enough to wash off my 40 layers of Zaino? :P
