    Igl echoshine hybrid wax over a coating.

    I'm wondering if it's alright to use this hybrid cleaner wax over a coating without damaging it? It's a sio2 cleaner wax with a chemical cleaner in it.

    IGL is a coating company but they conveniently leave out any mention of using this wax over a coating in the write-up.

    That probably gives me my answer right there

    If your talking about this. Then yes you can use it over a coating. At least there are fellow IGL installers who have mentioned using igl wax over a IGL coating.

    I personally haven't done it.

    Re: Igl echoshine hybrid wax over a coating.

    Hmm. I purchased this wax awhile ago, somehow missing the fact it is a cleaner wax. I intended to use on top of Premiere. Maybe that’s OK still (or maybe not?!?), but not sure I would have pulled the trigger if I realized the cleaning abilities.

    Thanks for sharing fightnews.

    Re: Igl echoshine hybrid wax over a coating.

    Be nice to have a thread on what types of cleaners are good for cleaning coatings but not degrading them.

    Things like this and other cleaner wax type products. Also diffrent all purpose cleaners diluted.

    I know ceramic coatings are strong enough to stand up to these products but are any of the products actually good for the coating?

    ^^Agreed. I was thinking Ecocoat was like Synergy or Enigma... meant specifically for topping a coating if preferred, but now I’m not so sure, but maybe it still is???

    Whats the big deal people have been waxing their cars 1x a month easy for as long as there's been carwax. Its the same thing. I'm sure there's 1x a week waxers out there too.

    Also nothing looks better then fresh product.

    If you made your username Bob you wouldn't have to type it out every time you post. Think of the time you could of saved after all these years.

    Think of the time you would have
    just saved yourself, if you could
    only understand that:

    I don’t type it out every time I post;
    it’s part and parcel of my signature line.
