I've got some essence on the way. I know it's not the normal approach, but I'm thinking of topping with a sealant, in this case megs ultimate wax.

Ive read some reviews of this and the consensus is that it works ok. I thought about reload, but I now have a dark car and I've heard some horror stories about reload on dark colors.

If if that's no longer the case, I am thinking about this approach....

essence, then reload. Maintain with d114, using ech2o with some reload mixed in as a drying aid. Use reload once a month or maybe once every two months, depending on the input I get. Thoughts?

Otherwise I can use what I have...upw or megs fast finish. Or both.

Interested in your input.

Essence and what your thinking is fine, but Essence and CQuartz or a coating would be better.

I've used Reload multiple times on dark blue, black, red and gray cars and have never had an issue. I also use the ECH2O+Reload mix as a drying aid/QD and it works great.
