    Time between coats

    I have a question about topping and time between coats. I have used the Wolfgang twins, then Wolfgang Total Gloss Sealant 3.0, About 17 hours later I put a second coat on, and tomorrow 30 hours or so later when I get time I will put a third coat on. Next I want to top all that with Megs 26. How long should I wait to put the Megs on, and if I want to put a second or third coat of Megs 26 how long do I need to wait between coats of that?

    Since I didn't realize there even was a product called:
    Wolfgang Total Gloss Sealant 3.0...

    I have decided to stay,
    out of this topping-foray!

    Guess I had the deep gloss sealant confused with the swirl remover.

    There comes a point where you get diminished returns. No need for all those layers.
    Back to the full-time grind.

    So you think I should skip the 3rd coat of sealant and go to Megs 26 of skip the Megs 26 all together?

    Skip both. 2 coats of sealant is plenty.

    Even though I'm always stressing the outstanding D.O.I. that #26 imparts...Skip using it on this Sealant (except at a Car Show!!)

    Two applications/layers(?), maybe, to "ensure" coverage...
    But what's with (seems like) almost everybody, and their brother, now wanting to apply 3, 4, or more applications/layers(?) of Waxes and Sealants!!!

    Or: 2, 3, or more applications/layers(?)
    of Coatings...WTC!!
