First post here but longtime observer and reader,
Recently I've been studying up on cleaner waxes and I believe I understand the concept. However if one had a sealant to put on and that sealant was only a sealant and not a cleaner wax/sealant combo....what would be the least aggressive manner to prepare the paint?
From my understanding it's 3* but really 2 in regards to this question:
1. Use a very light/non-aggressive polish or finishing polish
2. Use some type of surface prep such as CarPro Eraser or Opt Paint prep
*3. Use a cleaner/wax sealant combo (out of scope as my question is in regards to products that clean and prep only)
Which one of the first two would be the least aggressive path? One is removing a very small amount of clear while one is introducing IPA/some type of solvent into the mix.
Apologies if I misunderstood any of the concepts or products mentioned above, still learning :)
