Quick Question

I detailed my MiniS recently, first washing with Dawn dishwashing liquid to remove old wax, then Ultra Fine Sonus clay, followed by another washing, followed by Klasse All-In-One, followed by Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze. I'm really happy with the results. Here's the question: After I wash my car again, and follow with Sonus Detailing Spritz, can I use the Klasse Glaze again to build up the coats of glaze, or do I have to use the All-In-One first?
This forum has been really helpful to me, and the advice about applying the glaze whisper thin is really key. Again, thanks. Rick

whenever i change waxes i remove old wax, but if it's the same
i just go over it. unless i need to use polish, cause the old wax
quickly builds up on the polish pads and also creates all kinds of
dust from the old stuff.

Glad you like the Klasse look.

You do not need to put AIO again. Once the MINI's clean, you can put on another layer of SG. Most people find two coats of SG is enough.

if you have a dark colored mini, try a top layer of carnuba wax over the SG.

yep, as a n00b I had put too much SG once. I was still buffing out spots a week later.

have fun!

If you have done the Klasse twins, you should immediately then go to two layers of a good Carnuaba, like Pinnacle Sourveign, separated by one day to allow the first layer to cure. Adding multiple layers of the Klasse glaze really isn't necessary. However, you will see a big difference if you layer carnauba over the twins.
