Hmmm....sounds kinda hinkey. Oil and water. But, who am I to second guess someone who is a professional washer? That title just isn't given out, you know.

well, i'll try it once. was a reputable rag and i'm sure they didn't print it as a joke. had some other tips such as using carnuba-leaving in shade 4 grs after the wax job, ect... but this just sounded wierd. FWIW
