Wax Wars Part Duex

So my cure time is over and I finally got to do the full detail - here are some pics after the below regime

Washed (the right way - you can search on my name as I have posted that in detail before ).

3M Imperial Hand Glaze, machine applied with Porter Cable and Meguiars Polishing Pad -

Klasse All in One - hand applied to entire vehicle

Platinum Ulitmate Paint Protectant - three coats, first two 2 hours apart (your supposed to wait 24 per coat but I cheated) third coat after 24 hours.

Wheels - Poorboys Professional Polish to remove some fine scratches in clear coating, followed with Eagle One Wax/Polish combo product (longer lasting than any other wax I have tried).

Tires - Cleaned during wash then Poorboy's Natural Look

nice... the 3M glaze gives it some good depth but by itself wears off pretty quick. That finish looks amazing, really deep and consistent

Mines not worth waxing, it will all get stuck in the paint chips..ouch... too much winter highway driving for me!!

yeah

that's why I followed with the Klasse All in one and UPP - Klasse lays down a small amount of acrylic protectant and the UPP (a sealant) just loves that and bonds to it nice and dandy - so that should seal in the IHG for the duration of winter - but who am I kidding I will do it all again in a month or so - gotta love a heated garage -
