Yes,
I used brown wax over the Emerald after letting it dry for a couple of days, and it did fine.

I probably would not. The manufacturer says not to use a topcoat so it’s probably best not to use any type of topcoat on that paint. But if you do try it out, I would love to hear how it goes! That is a pretty great question, I’m just not quite sure if wax would be okay on that or not, and would love to know the answer too!

I want to use brown wax to highlight some details.
