After washing and claying car, is it advisable to use WG Paint Work Polish Enhancer prior to applying:

Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover 3.0
Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0
Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0
Pinnacle Souverän Carnauba Paste Wax

I previously applied the above products with a Meguiars Dual Action 6 Inch Polisher G110v2 and need to know if the above list of products needs to be removed prior to doing another multi-step detail...





Tagging onto an old review is okay, but usually it's better to start your very own dedicated thread for you detailing project.

To your question...

if you want to remove any previously applied wax or sealant before using an abrasive polish then "yes" you could use the Wolfgang Paintwork Polish Enhancer first and it will effectively remove any wax or sealant still on the paint. Not so much by mechanical action but because any coating you've left behind is really thin to start with plus wear-n-tear will remove wax and paint sealants over time.

If it were me... I would wash and clay as needed and then start right in with the Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover.

If it's staring enough to remove swirls and scratches out of a clear coat finish then it's strong enough to remove any micro, or sub-micron layer of wax off the paint.

Does that answer your question?

Just want to make sure I'm reading your post correctly.

Thanks for the advice!

My basic newbie question was...

When I go to do another multi-step detail this fall do I need to remove/strip everything previously applied? Sounds like the answer is No and the TSR will remove previous applications.

Great article..... I live in Michigan and normally use the Wolfgang trio every 4 to 6 months. After reading throughout the forum, I understand the WPPE "is not" needed if using WTSR due to it removing the old wax/sealant. With that being said, I do have a couple questions;
1) If no swirls are present when ready to re-apply sealant, wouldn't it be better to use WPPE instead of TSR? It seems that it would be less wearing on the clear coat.
2) If the answer is yes to the above, would the following be the correct procedure?

a) Wash/Dry
b) Clay/Rinse (if needed)
c) WPPE
d) WFG (???)
e) WDGPS

As always, thanks for all your help and suggestions. Ray
