Another topping question.

[trekkeruss]

This is just a hypothesis, but....Carnuba wax on the tree's leaves allows for oxygen to reach the leaf itself, so maybe the sealant below just cures slower?

Maybe, but there's more ingredients in carnauba wax than just the carnauba.

I believe I understand your premise.

However:
I thought trees' leaves/roots/etc. takes-in (Sun)light, carbon dioxide...and water.
Then through photosynthesis: these elements are converted to "food" for the tree...with the left over oxygen, thankfully, being released so we may have the oxygen/"air" mix...so we can breathe.


Back to your premise...And: If I may paraphrase:

Automotive-Sealants' Curing when topped with Waxes
•Car Waxes are, basically, considered: "water proof". That's a good thing.

But:
•Are automotive-Waxes porous enough to allow air to pass through them...to assist in a Sealant's curing?

•Are there automotive-Sealants that do not require "air" to cure?

Just a couple things to ponder.

I've had to do that before as well, sometimes time doesn't allow for the full recommended curing time . I have a question , wouldn't the temp and humidity play a big part in cure time? Whether it be slower , or faster ?
