    Question Mixing Two Types of wax

    I like the wet look of CG butter wax but doesn't last. Can i put C G Butter Wet Wax after Collinite 845 Liquid Wax ? Both are blends correct.

    You can do it, but you stand a good chance of your clear coat failing early because of it

    Yes you can, just make sure the first layer of wax is 100% cured before applying the second layer.

    It's called "topping".

    No. Was a good question actually. I just was wondering if Flash was trying to be serious lol. If not, it's pretty hilarious...

    Yup, like was said, it can be done. Plenty of people do it. Some people like having the best of both worlds, like using a sealant for protection, and topping it with a Carnauba wax for depth.

    Yea man you're safe to mix waxes, compounds and just about any other kinda cleaning/conditioning agent. Thats how great products are developed. Take the strong points of a partcular product and combine them with another. I do it often
