This car is huge and there are tons of crazy body panels that make this really difficult. So yeah, more that a sixer.

Yeah, the last time I waxed mine, I just did from the plastic up. My main goal that time, thugh, was to get under the removable stuff (Wing, front plate, etc)
Need to do a good pre-winter job soon, tho.

I did mine the ghetto way. I had some Meguiars wax in a tin can with the sponge and I waxed the whole car, including the windows and the dashboard plastic. I then let the car sit for 16 hours ( I started 3 pm on a Friday and took it off on Saturday about 7am in the morning before the day goes on.) I then used an old T-shirt to wax off. It wasn't a problem for me at all. On the black car, I used to wax that car once a month faithfully fo a year. I heard that wasn't good, thats why I stopped.

Oh occasionally I am ditsy blonde...no offense to blondes. But I even sometimes even amaze myself... 
I was laughing so hard that I was crying.

The body change in 96 made it easier. The dips in the lower trim on the SSE/SLE/SSEi are round, kinda finger-width. On the 92-95, there are sharper corners all the way around. It'* a PITA.
