How do I get the polish off??

hey guys (and gals) i have had my Cooper S polished, (not waxed), for a week and it looks well... like crap. To give a better example as to how bad it looks, in the right light it looks like someone took a handful of vaseline and wiped it down my car, and this is after 2 hours of wiping down! What I'm going to do this weekend is get harmon sqeaky clean and put real TECH WAX on it. I just wan't to get that crappy polish off Harmon. This will be difficult considering that most car wash solutions nowadays say that they won't take off wax or polish. How do I get that cruddy polish off??
Thanks in Advance and have a great weekend!!

BTW this is the wax I will be using, and every sexy MINI needs a sexy driver, or maybe just me:

not sure how well it would work, but instead of trying to get the old wax job off, try using the NXT Booster Wax. i'm not sure how well it'll work, but it's worth a try. i'm sure some of the more experienced detail guru's have some idea of how to get a wax job off.

I agree with minirox, take a good look around this forum, it has some very good information.

I would suggest you use some of that modeling money you get and go buy yourself some high quality wax/polish, like zaino. a few good coats of this and your MINI will be shining like your hairless chest after a good baby oil rub.

hey thats the closest model that actually looks like me!
So the people on here that actually know me can say yea I guess that's him!
I'll put some actual pics of me on here after I get a decent tan during spring break in SC. BTW this photo is actually an understatement I much more buff than this Brad, fag or whoever. I guess when you work out 4 days a week you can expect results. But I would like to add for all of you who may be misled, I AM NOT GAY, I just haven't had a girlfriend in 3 years because I am very busy wasting my time with school, athletics, and last but not least my car!!
