    Newbie here! first time user

    Alright, I have been doing a lot of research on here and ended up getting some products for my new black 2013 Chevy Silverado. I ordered Klasse AIO, and Klasse SG. Over the weekend I washed the truck, used AIO and then did the SG. My plan was to apply a second layer of SG the next day and then use Meguiar's Black Ice to wax it. I never got around to applying my second coat or the wax. I'm off this Wednesday and plan on doing so that day. The question I have is should I rewash the truck to apply the second coat of SG or just quick detail and then SG? How long should i wait after applyingh the SG to apply the wax?. Also, I noticed alot of dust on the truck, what is the best way to clean it off without scratching it? They truck looks brilliant btw. Will post pics as soon as im finished. Thanks in advance.

    You should wash.
    Did you clay? Do a baggie test and clay if needed
    I think you meant Meg's Black Wax? In which case, Black Wax is a AIO so using this on top of another wax, you will have pretty much removed the previous wax.

    I did the clay bar a couple months back when i first got it. I didnt think I needed to do it again. So there is no need to apply the Meguiar's wax?

    You would need a finishing wax if you wanted to apply additional layers of product on top of the work you've already done.

    Difference between finishing and cleaning waxes

    Hope that helps. Nice truck by the way! Keeping it clean is the best "mod" available

    Thanks for the link. I didnt know there was a difference. All i saw was to wax it so i didnt think much of it. I plan on taking care of her and keeping her in the garage. Thanks again!

    Honestly, if I were you, I wouldnt even use Klasse stuff. You came all the way to the site, get some GOOD stuff. Klasse si good, but since you're here, go big!

    As far as a wax on top, you need any finishing wax. Whether it be DP, Blackfire, Pinnacle, Wolfgang, Auto Finesse, Bouncers, Chemical Guys, Mothers, Meguiars, Poorboys, Bouncers, Dodo....and more, all those brands have fine finishing waxes and you reallyl can't go wrong. Dont forget, a lot of the look and results are in your prep work, wax only really protects it and adds to the look. Polishing is what gets you there.

    If I were you, I'd clay, use a nice finishing polish, seal and wax.

    And yeah, even though you think your car doesnt need to be clayed it does and you should do it anyway, especially if you aren't using a cutting polish at least its something to know you've done all you can to strip the surface of prior crap!
    Back to the full-time grind.
