    Pinnacle jewling wax to remove carpro essence?

    I was wondering if the pinnacle jewling wax is abrasive enough to remove carpro essence? I assume any type of abrasive will remove it but figured I would ask.

    I want to use it to hold me over for 6 weeks until I can do a full polish.

    Keeping in mind the amount of sheen
    (glossiness) that this product imparts
    to the surfaces to which it’s been applied...

    I know that I wouldn’t be able to tell if
    any amount of the Essence had actually
    been removed, or not, without the aid
    of some very sophisticated equipment.

    Of course: YMMV.

    Do you think the color makes a difference as far as the removal? Just curious what you think? I'm not going for major correction the cars in good shape. It looks mint it doesn't even need the jeweling wax I'm just looking for an excuse to use my polishers.

    It has some minor swirling and normal wear and tear but I'm not concerned about to much correction right now. I'm planning on doing a full 2 step on my vacation that I'm planning now. No later then end of July. Plus I want to go back to carnauba for a while so I can get a good grasp on the difference looks wise.

    If nobody can tell the difference then why are there so many different last step products out there?

    Read my previous post again.

    It’s because of the very high level of
    glossiness, that Pinnacle Jeweling Wax
    leaves upon the surfaces it’s applied to,
    is the main reason that I wouldn’t be
    able to tell if it actually removed any
    amount of the Essence, or not.

    Then again:
    Who knows...You might be different.

    I think even if it didn't fully remove the essence that wouldn't be a bad thing because it is glossy. I want to try topping the jeweling wax with the pinnacle sio2 spray after a few weeks. That is a great, glossy product for sure. Best sio2 product Ive used to date maybe.

    I'm only going to have it on there 6-8 weeks tops then I'm doing a 2 step with Rupes medium gel polish and diamond ultra fine. Then I'm topping it with GlassCoat cosmic. I can not wait lmaoo.

    At the end of the day it doesn't matter if its fully removed. I'm more concerned with getting an idea of what it actually takes to remove this ceramic sio2 stuff from paint? Pinnacle jeweling wax is probably the least abrasive polish that's sold here.
