So yesterday I completed my second detail on my white Honda prelude. I washed, clayed, m205, Mazerna glaze then topped it off with Pinnacle Sovereign Liquid Wax. So I have a few questions...

If I wanted to put on more glaze by hand, if effective, would it be effective since its layered with wax already, or am I just basically glazing the wax and not the clear coat?

The last time I waxed my car before yesterday was about a year ago, but upon reading many threads, I came to the conclusion that it should be done more often. So, is it ok to wax about everyday 2 weeks to a month with different brands of waxes? I wanted to try the 845 and the Hi tech yellow #26, can I use both within about a month from each other and on top of the liquid sovereign, basically stacking waxes..?

Also, in between car washes, I wash about every week or I try to since I don't have my own garage, can I use a quick detailer spray in between with mild dust? I have a pearl white car, any suggestions on a good quick detailer spray?

The answer to the first question is, no you shouldn't glaze over wax, it should be the other way around.
If you're looking to see what wax works best for you, it's better to strip off the old wax so you can see the difference in the 2, otherwise you're waxing over wax and won't get a clear picture of the one you like best.
A quick detailer will remove MINOR dust. Your best bet in between washes is a waterless wash or rinsless wash.
