this has probably been answered already so work with me. i was wondering if there are any car waxes that can be used in direct sunlight. i have a driveway without an overhang car port and i was wondering if i could wax my fj there or not. if there is a wax i can use if you could tell me where to get it.

I just bought some Turtle Wax Ice and it said you can use it in direct sun. I tried the quick spray wax stuff and used it in direct sun to polish up the bumpers and had no issues whatsoever. It worked well.

I bought it on recommendation from several members of this board.

I use Turtle Wax Ice myself and it has worked great for me! I also like Meguiars Gold Class Wax Liquid. It always polished my show vehicles up real nice and I always used it in direct sun light. Hope this helps.

Another vote for the Ice!! Love it.

They also have the Ice car wash (good enough on it's own) and the interior cleaner. I recommend all 3!!!

I like Griot's Garage Best of Show wax. Very easy to work with, smells great, and lasts a while.

Poorboys products are designed for using them in direct sunlight. One of the few products that are.

turtle wax ice is not great, but if it is all you have to use then go for it. you could also get a quick shade/ez up for some shade. don't forget there are other steps besides just a wax which may not be able to be done in the sun.
