  • ULW over Black wax

    About a month ago I used Black Wax because after a long winter, my paint needed some cleaning up. I know it's not as durable as the sealants, so my intent has been to put on a coat of ULW for durability over the summer.

    I also used, for the first time, my nanoskin mitt - and was very impressed by it's ease of use and effectiveness. I am thinking, in search of the best use of the ULW, that I will use the nanoskin again (at least on the horizontal surfaces) before applying the ULW - in order to give it the best opportunity for bonding and durability.

    Thoughts??

    Yes it can be done. Many here top a cleaner wax. The durability of ULW wlll be effected. By how much is hard to say.

    Since you are going through the effort of using a cleaner wax and topping it, have you considered using a dedicated polish? ULW will last longer this way. That is just how I see it.

      By going this route I have had protection until I get around to topping. But by using the nanoskin, I should - in effect, have just as clean a surface as the polish would have yielded. It will take me less than 5 minutes to strip the Black Wax with the nanoskin.

        You will have no issues. Post pics when you get done.
