No! Wax over your decals! Tamiya wax doesn't cut the paint at all, it's more like a sealer and it's really slick.

I really like it, and it repels dust well. Also good for tyres and won't leave white marks. Get it!

What kind of SUV is that in your Avatar? Looks like a 4Runner but not sure.

Are you safely able to handle the model after waxing? (ie do you end up leaving fingerprints) or should you wax it and never touch it again...
