Essence and Wolfgang Coating

[waterman]

Hello,

Last night I finished the prep work on my Yukon Denali for the application of the Wolfgang coating. My last step was the car pro essence polish enhancer. The gloss on my truck is amazing!

My question is should I wait a certain amount of time before I do the coating? I have the Wolfgang paint prep, should I use this as a precaution? Also, will using the paint prep remove any fillers from the essence? If I didn’t have the coating I would leave my truck as it is because it looks so nice.

Thanks

I want to see the gloss.

Hello,

I hope this works. The reflection with the car is my vr4, I tried to get the best reflection shot.

Looks outstanding.

I believe: the paint prep is not a necessity but could help remove polish residue, and should not remove the SiO2 fillers which are quite durable. Not sure about timing of coating application though, there’s been a decent amount written on that subject. Someone else will probably chime in.

My guess is that it would remove the Si02 fillers... Why wouldn’t it? If a coating can be removed with a simple hand application of finishing polish, how could those fillers survive a paint cleaner that does a pretty remarkable job of cleaning paint so well that in some cases it literally changes colors from the amount of embedded dirt that comes off.

Hello,

I finished last night around 8:30. I think I will use the paint prep as a precaution. I’m going to start the coating around 4 today.

@waterman. This is the perfect scenario for your mind to begin playing tricks on you... If you allow it to. Lol.
