    Another topping question.

    I've done my car with Wolfgang SG 3.0. Now if I add Fuzion on top of that will it affect the longevity of the SG 3.0 ? Thanks, slantram.

    RE: Wax over a Sealant...

    How long are you going to allow
    WGDGPS 3.0 to cure beforehand?

    Now you can do whatever you want to do with it.

    Re: Another topping question.

    Related concern: I applied the WGDGPS3.0 to the entire vehicle, waited more than one hour before wiping it off, then approximately 3-4 hours after the wipe off, I applied Fuzion. Did I compromise the sealing quality of the 3.0 by applying the Fuzion so soon? I had no choice in the matter, as I did not have an opportunity to complete the waxing the next day. Thanks in advance.

    Too bad that you couldn't allow for the 12 hour cure-time.
    A lot of folks seem to be running into similar situations lately.

    The Sealant will start "cross-linking and bonding" at the onset of its application.
    But it's those last few curing hours (final % of cross-linking/bonding) that's needed to provide the optimum durability and other Sealant qualities such as resistance to many solvents.

    But...thankfully:
    The light at the end of the tunnel is not currently turned off.

    In a few short weeks most of the Fusion will have eroded to the point where a car washing session and a mild polish will remove its remnants, allowing for another go-round with the WGDGPS.

    Only this time with the:
    12 hours for cure-time...Correct?

    With all this polishing and waxing my guess is it's the best looking PT Cruiser in your town if not in the state.


    Picure?

    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?
