Ok folks, here goes. I've been reading all your dialogue for a month now and truly enjoy it. I just purchased a 57 Crown Imperial. My boys (Patrick 15, David 14) and I (especially) love it! It has 27,500 original miles, and is in fine condition. The 392 Hemy makes me smile as I can barely hear it running after her two-day tune-up. I'm a novice, but learning every single day. Here goes my very first (of many questions): When I rub the paint (or wax) the rag is actually coming up with blue smudges on it. It's as if I'm rubbing off the paint!! What's that all about. I haven't waxed it yet or anything yet because I wanted to ask this question. Is it paint? Is it unbuffed wax? I'm not freaked about it, but is does seem alittle wierd. (The car is dark blue and has been painted MAYBE once since its original paint job in 1957. Please advise.
