ummm its probably just oxidation ie dull paint that comes off so the shiny paint shines. All good waxes do it to older cars

Uh dude, there should be no paint coming off when you wax, If there is paint coming off then someone painted your car. If its just a little it could be just some touch up paint coming off of the little nicks, but if its like a lot then someone sprayed it with spray paint....<P>And to reply about paint coming off old cars with good wax that may be true, because old OLD cars didn't have clearcoats. And if your getting swirls try a softer cloth.

Actually Wax does take paint off. Mother's Pure Carnuba wax does, it removes the oxidization and some of the paint with it.
