Ya but as he pointed out, you can just carry a rag with you. Really it will be a test of your wax job. If you did a good job, it should just wipe off fairly easily the first day - just do a once over when you get out after work and wipe down the big stuff. If your wax is starting to go bad, rub off, or you just didn't do a good job, it will take more scrubbing with a rag, but it will still come off. The same goes for the bottom of the doors and the bumper(mudguards are next on my checklist). If I wipe them down every day it takes 20 seconds. If I let it build for 2 weeks I gotta wash the whole thing.
