Gold Class top Ultimate Wax ?

[lithium25]

Hey everyone!. First of all, excuse me my english.
My question is: Can i use meguiars Gold Class Carnauba wax top Ultimate Wax?
Gold Class does not have cleaners? So if I top the UW it will no be removed?

Thanks!

Hi lithium25,

Welcome to Meguiar's Online! Yes, if you prefer, you can apply a coat of our Gold Class Carnauba Plus Wax on top of Ultimate Wax. For best results we would recommend allowing 24 hours for Ultimate to completely cure, before applying a second coat of wax. A second coat does not necessarily double up on protection, but it does ensure you have even coverage.

Thanks Nick
So, the Gold Class Carnauba Plus does not have cleaner properties to remove UW?

GCCP will not remove your UW, no. For an idea of your end result:

There are 3 pics there- I topped my silver car with GC with a base of UW.

Re: Gold Class top Ultimate Wax ?

From a professional point of view, would you ever suggest layering these two in any circumstances?

I have 2 bottles of ULW (friend gave me second one. It's great tbh so I have protection to come for years). It provides good shine in my opinion and have actually gotten compliments on the road (as crazy as that sounds. I drive a 2017 Civic Touring and the blue just stands out by its self. The shine makes it flash and pop more)

I've been thinking about buying Gold Class for a while now (to add to my meguiars collection . Just bought Endurance TG). I want it as a topper to provide a bit more gloss and to serve as a "jacket" over ULW. Like a spray wax to boost shine and extend protection of base wax by serving as a thin temporary sacrificial layer before contaminates and rain touch ULW again.

My question is, would it be worth it? Sure, GC can be layered over UW, but is there any noticeable shine improvement? (Maybe after a week or so after UW has had some time to wear out?) And, in action, would it actually protect the sealant (extend protection by a few weeks more or less, given it will cover the sealant), or would it make its way under or something (SCIENCE!) and not provide any additional protection?

Atleast, by my understanding, carnauba over sealant seems like it would provide some protection before rain and dirt touches the sealant. I think of it as me wearing a jacket over my shirt. Put on shirt, have a days worth of protection from ketchup and such. Put sweater over it, and I have something to protect shirt but will come off quickly (because it'll get hot -_-. )

If GC over UW works as so, I think it's worth the work to layer it. Start with UW, let it "set in" (cure and get worn out for like a week), and top it with GC (rejuvenate gloss with shiner LSP and provide a few weeks more of protection, "pausing" the use of UW until GC burns off and you're left with UW again)

So...?

-----------
Anyone have any pics of GC over UW on a blue car? I know carnaubas excel on darker cars. My car is Aegean Blue

Re: Gold Class top Ultimate Wax ?

Ok scratch last post. Just snooped around and apparently GC has some cleaning power but not enough to be called a cleaner (http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums...Plus-Wax/page2)

So... I don't know if I want it as a topper wax anymore... I don't want any topper to reduce effectiveness of sealant... any comment on this Megs?
