Just curious... How did you wax on (or around) the decal?
Wouldn't the wax be harmful on the edges of the vinyl?

I wax around the decal and apply wax lightly and buff by hand....

I use the Zymol car wash too. It smells like bubblegum. I've got to get of my lazy *** and wax my car.

i guess it cant protect like vic's zymol though

I have one...

go to the detailing section of Crappy Tire and look for the California Duster. It's a small duster that you use on your car, doesn't scratch and it grabs everything.

well dont apply to much near creavises and accents of the car... when you get near those areas.. use light wax and do it all by hand.... buffing causes it to get stuck in those spots....

hope this helps
