Should I apply polymer sealent after waxing or via versa ??

[Vincent]

I live in tropical climate here, temp range between 32 - 35d C, I was wonder could I do like this to have greater protection 1) wash 2) prep 3) polish 4) wax 5) polymer sealent. Does it work this way ? If not how to have max protection in hot weather ? pls Help...

Well, not sure of all what products you might have nearby, but for best protection, 2 coats of Nxt Wax or #21 Polymer Sealant would be about the best.

Some people think topping a synthetic wax with a carnuba looks a bit nicer, but that is only opinion really.

Any synthetic wax or sealant will not bond to paint surface if carnauba wax is there. So Sythetic sealant, then carnauba wax.

Hmm.. if a synthetic layer wont bond to a carnuba layer, why would a carnuba bond to a synthetic?

Good question. Anyone got an answer?

I should add that that was a bit of a rhetorical question I suppose, since I think they bond fine to each other. It just makes more sense to put the canuba on top if you are going to use it, no other reason.

But I would have to say 2 synthetic layers would give the best durability. But feel free to try any product combination that you like... I have at least 6 waxes on my shelf.

The synthetic stuff isnt cheap lol. 2 layers is really good if you got the money to put two layers. Im still trying to find money to buy half the stuff I need to detail cars. Already spent well over $400 and I dont have anything from the pro line or detailer line yet. Just a DC system and Cleaner/Wax. Oh and a bottle of swirl remover so eh, Im not counting that.

Luckily #21 spreads thin really easy. A bottle lasts forever.

Hey,

If you are planning to layer the two products, then yes, #21 followed by #26.

Hi Vincent. I use Nxt is quite good. Last week Pg was raining almost every single night. And I parked my car outside one. Surprisingly it was quite durable. Although I notice on Friday the water beading wasn't so good lio and the shine was so so only. But I tested the wax just like Mike's article and the wax was still there. Yesterday I've use #20 and top with #16. I'll let you know how it turn out. But not raining now. Quite hot today. Hopefully this week's weather will be fair. Hehehe.
