Waxoil + mud'n'stuff =?

[missfixit70]

This is probably a really daft question (my speciality) but has been niggling away in me noggin for a couple of days (very boring life) so I thought I'd better ask the question.
As I understand it, waxoyl doesnt go hard, so I'm imagining a gunky coating under the car that will end up with mud/grit/ small animals/children stuck in it, is this the case? does it require a gentle hosing, can it withstand a pressure wash or does all the crap that gets flung up off the road just fall off due to its oily greasy slickness?

Any children stuck to it should be peeled off and posted back home

It's just like any other greasy surface - it gets covered in dust and the surface is no longer sticky.

I have waxoyled other vehicles and had my bongo waxoyled by a body shop.
When I have applied it myself it has taken some time to harden, and it could be smeared off with a finger for a few days.
For the bongo the body shop put it in their paint oven and after a few hours quite a hard coat had built up, but it was just possible to scrape through the coat with a fingernail. Basically it looks as though it remains flexible underneath for a long time, which is good for protection, but gets a harder skin quick under the right temperature conditions. If you want the DIY version to harden up quickly you should put it in a oven, or do it in very hot weather.
For the bongo much of the underfloor is away from direct pressure from road water, except the wheel arches, where I would either have a body shop do a quick harden job, or paint on one of the underbody seals which are chip resistant.

Ive enough on my plate driving from pemberton to whelley without getting smashed into as it is, without having to swerve away from the pools of standing water too!
