Gold Class Carnauba Plus paste layers

[ARTB155]

Hi

I just prepare my paint for applying GC Carnauba Plus paste was first time so I just want to ask how long I have to wait before coats.
I plan to apply 1st coat - let it haze and remove and immediatelly 2nd coat (for uniformity) - let haze and remove.
But how long should I wait before applying 3rd coat or precisely it will be true 2nd coat as previosly 2nd coat is just for uniformity.
I know that recommended curing time between coats for sealants is 24 hours abd for pure Carnauba waxes something around 1-2 hours but not sure for GC as there are some polymers in it so it is neither true sealer neither pure Carnauba.

Regards

Hi ARTB155,

If you are looking to apply a second coat of any of our protectants, carnauba or synthetic, it is best to allow to cure for 12 - 24 hours. A second coat will ensure even coverage, but after two coats, there is no benefit.

Hope this helps!

Thank you.
So, do you reccomend routine as I have with other waxes
which is 1st coat - let haze - buff and immediatelly "2nd" coat - haze - buff for even coverage and then after 12-24 hours one more coat.

We would recommend applying a thin & even coat of the Gold Class Carnauba Plus on a cool surface ideally in the shade, let fully dry for at least 10 minutes, & gently wipe off with a microfiber towel. If you would like to apply a second coat, for best results, we recommend waiting 12 - 24 hours. Once this time has passed, ensure there is no dust on the surface, and if needed, use a spray detailer like our Quik Detailer to remove the dust. Apply a second coat.

There is no benefit to applying more than two coats, since the wax is not going to bond to itself.

All clear but just one more question - what about chilled water mist and buff 30 min or an hour after hazed wax was buffed.

For best results, we would not recommend introducing any water to the paint surface during the curing time.
