    Lets hope for his sake they do

    I have to agree with Steveo no way will wax do any good at all....

    It wont hide or mask the damage at all the only way to repair it is a trip to a body shop where the panels can be stripped back and started again from a sound base......

    no youve posted a load of poop...wax will not replace , cover up or repair missing chunks of clearcoat

    fact !

    im sure the original poster has enough expense coming if they want it resprayed , dont post b.s and get them to waste more money

    Agree, no way will wax replace laquer. If the lacquer has been removed, it needs to be resprayed.

    Whether or not they have insurance is irrelevant, if they damaged your car, they're liable

    Look. Audi gave me that advice, i did it, it worked.

    Lets just see how the op reports back and then we'll see if your just a moron who paints cars and doesnt know his job or not.

    I don't understand that about waxing. Surely it would come off next time it's washed?

    No, im sat thinking what a knob end you are. When you read my post are you missing the word that says it worked. I dont know nothing about lacquer or how to paint a car but ill guess its hardly rocket science. What im saying you thick tw@ is that Audi told me to do it and it WORKED. Even someone as apparently slow as you can understand that.
    Or should we start with 'the bus was red'

    Like i said, see what the OP says when he has done it.

    When i bought my nice new spankly A3 i jet washed it and did exactly the same thing as the OP. I went back to Audi kicking and screaming and they told me go get it valeted with a full wax.
    I did this and all was sorted.

    Unlike you who is just a tit who is speculating i have actually had this problem you bell end.

    FACT

    :D

    Lets just see how the OP reports.

    And a 'fact' that is not factual! Well done. Calling people a 'tit' and a 'bell end' really added power and stature to your argument. Congratulations. However I (and nearly everyone else on here) are aware that wax couldn't possibly replace clearcoat as its applied as a stage of the painting process. Wax is applied by people in their garages with a cloth. What makes your argument funnier is that you are arguing with a man who paints cars for a living. So far your posts are as useful as a one legged man in an !!!! kicking contest....
