    OS on top of Wet Mirror Finish

    I received my OS today and topped my burgundy red Explorer. It had CG's WMF on it which was on top of XMT360.

    The OS was a breeze to use and even where I got it on a little heavy it wiped off easily. Dried in 10 minutes in 70F low humidity weather. It left a nice rich, wet finish over the WMF (which is very wet by itself).... very carnauba like look overall. Initial slickness is okay (not at the WMF level), but I'll wait 24 hours to recheck that. No camera on hand, no pics, but all you'd see is a shiny Explorer...lol. Very pleased with this product so far.

    Joe, I thought I'd get that TTIWWP response, but not so soon. You have my permission to delete it....just providing some info. My bad.

    Im lost ...OS is not meant to be buffed or wiped off. Why did you do this, any streaking ??

    After letting OS dry I had 3-4 small spots where it needed some wipe off....no streaking anywhere. After 12 hours, finish looks about like WMF, maybe slightly deeper, not quite as slick as WMF, but good enough.
    Nice product.

    Just used XMT360 then topped that with Souveran Spray Wax. My question is can I top the Souveran with OS

    Just make sure the Souveran has cured 12+ hours and then go for it. I worked the OS in circular motions, but some go up/down-to/fro. Go thin with a foam hand applicator. Have fun.
