Well.....Generally yes, but it really depends on what you use it on. I think anything...
You are probably right but are you saying then that it is not truly possible to "layer" waxes and that what you are doing is really just building up total thickness?
As others have said, glaze, seal then wax, but make sure you are using a compatible glaze.(i.e. no carnuba). The Wolfgang glaze is fine under the Wolfgang DGS.
I would wait the full 24 hours or more. You see, it's about more than just the solvent evaporating. The wax even thouh 95% of the solvent is gone quickly, is still fairly soft. If you quickly...
The gas phase will rise in proportion to the density difference between the vaporized solvent and the surrounding air. In an absolutely quiet environment, yes, the rate of vapor rise will be a very...
It's not linear. Dalton's law of partial pressures is a little more complicated that the explanation below, but essentially, solvents evaporate in proportion to the concentation difference between...
XMT finishing glaze has carnuba. It won't work well under a sealant. (Ask me how I know) I would polish to the point of LSP ready, do the sealant, the wax and then the Spray Souveran. As far as I can...
If the glaze contains carnuba, like XMT finishing glaze, then the sealant won't bond. Some other glazes like Wolfgang Finishing Glaze is designed to be the last step before the WGDG Sealant.
I polished them out as I did the car, and didin't really notice any particular yellowing, but then I usually do the HL when I do the cars anyway. Just part of my system.
The door handles are plastic, so I taped them off completely to void any potential damage. Once I took the tape off, I polished them by hand. Te A Pillars should be not problem with the PC.
Right below and to the right of the DS headlight there are some significant love bug etchings and a few rock chips. The very bottom has a small amount of curbage. We may or may not try to fix the...
I guess a better way to have said it was that I started with the least aggressive approach I thought would work. You're right though, I could have started with #2, or #1, but my previous experience...
Yep, on his way to work today, it rained. You would have thought he had been rear-ended. He'll take care of it, it is something he has waited and worked for for quite a while. This job is his first...
He's had to suffer through hand me down cars since he started driving, first was an '85 BMW325 that he had to rebuild before he could drive it, then when that engine blew, I bought him the Mazda...
I did this detail for my son today. I don't do this professionally, so be kind, but let me know what I've missed. I'll apologise in advance, there are no before pictures, I got so...
If you are looking for another, I suggest you check out your local Dicks Sporting Goods. I was in there last WE, and they had the 10 x 10 EZ UP for $49. The larger one 12 x 12 was $79 and they had a...
I just picked up a cheap rotary from pep Boys (39.99). It's a vector brand, and is basically a Makita knock-off. Soft start motor, and all the things you mentioned. As far as results, it's about the...
If you're tryin to polish out sinificant swirls, scratches or wetsand marks, then the Menzerna Power loss is a better starting point than the SIP. Roatry machine with an orange pad or a purple foamed...
