Hi,

I normal 15deg night in Mel, went to apply some wax. realized the carnauba wax sitting in the can is like hard and wont go on the applicator.

Im using maguaires m26 wax, do you need to warm the wax up first?
whats the deal?...

I know my Autoglym HD wax, and Turtle Wax Ice are both activated by water.

Is there anything in the instructions about it?
