ive always waxed stickers should make it last longer, like others have said get edges clean. Theres a new wax out there ICE which is able to be put on anything from what I have heard and doesnt leave a residue.

I waxed my factory installed stripes and they look great.

I've used Zaino on stripes, with no problems.

(Oh. And it "cures" within an hr., mixed with a little ZXF)

NXT 2.0 is a much better product
Well its an amazing product but its time consuming. They have a wonderful all in one product as well for daily drivers. NXT 2.0 is one of the better otc products out there ill give u that though but its durability is not even close to zaino thats for sure. Thats my biggest complaint on otc wax's/sealants is the durability.

That's like saying good sex is overrated because it lasts too long...

Some of use like to get to know our cars. And if you do it RIGHT, you can apply TWO coats of polish in an hour (using ZFX).

+10 Zaino owns.. Try putting the Zaino Z16 Tire shine on your stripes, it makes them look real nice.

Good to know... My first application of Zaino w/ZFX I went around the stripes. Next time I'll get them too. Maybe it will help with water spots...
