waxing a satin paint job is a definite no no.I just picked up a new product line that was developed for satin paint. a soap and a daily mist type of cleaner that leaves no streaks behind. also when doing a satin paint job the clear has to be mixed to a satin finish. The problem is when painting the car apart the mixed clear is inconsistent in sheen. Most all major paint companies are developing a satin clear straight from the can. Standox is what is used on high end cars like the one above. The are leading the pack with a satin clear to be offered to the end user any day now.
