    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...

    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.

    Be very Careful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    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.
