Why Choose SOFT99 The King of Gloss?
A quality wax does more than make a vehicle look shiny. It also adds a protective layer that helps maintain the appearance of the paintwork between washes.
SOFT99 The King of Gloss is designed for customers who prioritize a deep, glossy finish. Its blend of mineral waxes and synthetic resins creates a smooth coating that enhances the appearance of the paint while providing water and dirt repellency.
Unlike spray waxes and quick detailers, this traditional hard paste wax requires a little more application time but offers a more involved waxing experience and a substantial protective finish.
Whether you're preparing a vehicle for a weekend drive, maintaining a freshly detailed car, or simply looking to bring out the best in your paintwork, The King of Gloss provides an effective way to enhance shine and protection.

How to Apply SOFT99 The King of Gloss
1. Wash the Vehicle Thoroughly
Wash the vehicle to remove loose dirt, dust, road grime, and other surface contamination. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Dry the Paintwork
Dry the vehicle completely using a clean microfiber drying towel. The King of Gloss should be applied to clean, thoroughly dry paintwork.
3. Prepare the Applicator
Use the included application sponge. Take a moderate amount of wax onto the sponge without overloading it.
4. Apply a Thin, Even Layer
Spread the wax evenly across the paintwork using light, consistent movements. Work on one panel at a time, such as the hood, roof, or individual doors.
Avoid applying excessive amounts of product.
5. Allow the Wax to Dry
Allow the applied wax to dry for approximately 5–15 minutes, depending on environmental conditions. Drying time may be longer in colder weather.
6. Buff with a Clean Microfiber Towel
Once the wax has dried, gently buff the surface using a soft, clean microfiber towel. Remove the remaining residue completely to reveal the glossy finish.
7. Continue Panel by Panel
Repeat the process across the vehicle. Working panel by panel helps prevent the wax from drying for too long and becoming difficult to remove.
Recommended Aftercare & Maintenance
To maintain the finish and extend the life of your wax protection:
Wash the vehicle regularly using a suitable pH-neutral car shampoo.
Avoid aggressive cleaning chemicals unless required for a specific detailing task.
Use clean microfiber wash mitts and drying towels.
Avoid unnecessary abrasive contact with the paintwork.
Consider a compatible maintenance spray to refresh gloss between waxing sessions.
Reapply The King of Gloss when water repellency and protective performance begin to diminish.
Avoid layering incompatible products over the wax.
Important Precautions
Use only on the paint colours specified for the selected product variant.
Apply only to clean, thoroughly dry automotive paintwork.
Do not apply in direct sunlight or to hot surfaces.
Avoid application in sandy, dusty, or windy environments.
Do not use on unpainted plastic, rubber, tires, glass, lenses, leather, or other surfaces not specified by the manufacturer.
If the product contacts an unintended surface, wipe it away immediately.
Do not leave the wax on the paintwork longer than necessary. Excessive drying can cause unevenness, staining, and difficult removal.
For repainted vehicles, deteriorated coatings, or paintwork in poor condition, test on an inconspicuous area first.
Wear suitable protective gloves and wash hands after use.
Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Follow the safety information on the product packaging.
Keep out of reach of children.
Store below 40°C, away from direct sunlight, humidity, freezing temperatures, and moisture.
