It beads up and doesn't dry. It you touch it it will wipe off. It may leave a faint stain, but it won't show up strongly. If you put wax on spray paint then it will make it hard to remove the spray paint and it will also make the spray paint look glossier.

What to use to shine your car?
Aside from the standard storebought wax shines there are other ways to shine your car, The first thing you need is a good paint job on your car, if it is faded then purchase a product called a 'compounding' it is a very fine grit that will remove any oxidized paint (faded paint) from the paint surface. this alone will make it shine but it will need protection from the sun, dirt, etc. this can be done with any good wax. After all this work to get your shine on the car the one thing to remember is to keep it clean by washing it often, but of course the washing will remove the wax you put on it. so keeping the shine is hard work. in times past, chauffers who had to wash and wax the vehicles they drove had a 'trick' for keeping the shine on the car. when washing the car they put a cup of kerosine in the bucket of water they washed the car with. This left the car with the 'shine they wanted' but a word of caution if you try this: first it is flammable before it dries, then there OS the 'odor' of the kerosine and the kerosine can soften the paint so this would not be one that I would do very often, maybe only for special occasions because the shine especially on black paint is unbelievable! They is another benefit in using kerosine on your car, is that it will help prevent rust.

What kind of protectant is best for acrylic paint and why?
That is a question that you will get numerous answers too. There are many good waxes out there. I personally use McGuires products and love them. Wax is a protectant, and if used reguarly they are all good. Some just go on easier and protect longer than others. An alternative to wax is Acrylic paint conditioners, which are better for acrylic paints than waxes. Pure liquid non abrasive and self leveling, conditioners are absorbed into the paint. They make the paint stronger as opposed to covering it up with a wax built up.

Which is better car polish or car wax?
It depends on your definition of car polish, polishing compounds take a little of the corrosive glaze that eventually attacks all paint jobs. Car wax puts a film of wax polish to protect the paint job. Many automobile painters I have conferred with tell me if you want to restore the paint job use polishing compound and then put a coat of wax polish on it. Polish if meant as car polish would be just like car wax it puts a film of polish on the paint to protect it. I do not have the information about the brand of polish, for that I would consult the internet.
