From the tests I have been conducting, I now believe in the incredible benefits of layering liquid LSP's; increased durability and better looks, without a doubt. I'm now trying to narrow my product choices down to those that cure in the shortest period of time, thus allowing me to put down multiple layers (maybe 3?) in ,say, a 4 hour window. Here are a few that I came up with:

- Duragloss 105 (or 111) w/the 601 bonding agent
- Zaino z2 (or z5) w/ZFX additive
- Jeffs Werkstat Acrylic Jett (Website indicates only 1 hour needed b/w layers; no zfx/dg 601 type agent needed)
- Polycharger added to an LSP (Sonax Nano Liquid Wax,Pinnacle Liquid Souveran, DGPS 3.0, Klasse)

Really interested in Polycharging the Sonax bc it has great looks, but moderate durability by itself.

Any others i'm not thinking of?

Top any AIO with OCW and you only need 2 layers for many months of protection.

Using the WG Glossy Paint Sealant I really don't see the need to layer, I mean the shine is as best as I can get, not sure laying would benefit me.
It's shines that much plus you get great protection, now some people put two coats of the sealant for added protection, I'll do that on my next car if I have the time it needs to cure.

OCW & DGPS are both outstanding products. I just don't have the 8-12 hours of time (at least, given temps this time of year) to spare between layers. I also don't know if two layers of either have the "legs" to make it through winter on a daily driver in the Northeast. Then again, I was talking about polycharging, so both of the aforementioned concerns would be unfounded.

With an AIO and OCW combo you do have any cure time lag. Clean with AIO and then top with OCW immediately.
