    Use finishing glaze then wax ?

    Question from a newbe. Do I understand correctly to apply the finishing glaze, after the swirl remover, then the wax? That's what I did today and the result is beautiful - 3 yr old black S2000 garage queen. Am using Pinnance XMT and souveran wax. Was not sure if should apply the glaze then the wax, or wax and then the glaze. Would applying the glaze over the wax produce an even better shine? Or would it be better to apply several coats of wax ? thanks

    Its glaze and then wax. The glaze fills in the light marks that the buffing couldn't remove. Depending on the glaze, there may be a light amount of carnauba present for a little protection. You then top this with a wax of your choice, obviously made of carnauba and not a cleaner wax. If you use a glaze without carnuaba, which I suggest, you can then top it with a sealant and then a wax.

    Good luck, ask more questions if they arise!

    What glaze would be the superior out of the bunch that doesn't have carnuaba? I already have Klasse's sealant and some P21S, Meg's #16, and some NXT wax!

    I have heard of that one, but AG doesn't carry that! I want to get something from here since they have always taken care of me. Any other suggestions?
