Klasse? Wax or Polymer?

And what are your opinions of these two products from Klasse? AIO and Sealant?

AIO, is a good all around cleaner/protectant. Good for quick shine ups, average protection. The smell was atrocious. Like a wet dog. One of the reasons I never went bak to purchasing it again. I just couldnt stand the smell. Also found the longer you waited for removal, the more difficult it was. Good all around oxidation remover though.
SG ? In all honesty, i used it 3-4 times and ended up tossing it. I found it to be more hassle then rewarding. Extremely difficult to remove (per label directions) on silver. Appearance was a little "plasticky" or "sterile" looking.
Klasse was just not my cup of tea...

Patrick,

How much of a difference would I notice between 4* UPP and Duragloss?

Could I use Duragloss 105 and the UPP? Should I use a QD in between coats? Is there a recommended car wash soap? The more I read, the more confused I become. What is the best combo in your opinion? I do not use an orbital buffer, I do it all by hand.

ts, at a minimum, you should use a paint cleaner. It will really prep the surface for proper sealant bonding.
DG 105 vs. UPP, I would have to give the slickness edge to UPP. They are both equally extremely useful to use. Matter of fact, there is nothing (IMO) easier to use. UPP's best attribute is its incredible slickness. Better then average durability also. 105's best attribute, slickness, durability, all for $10.00? Unmatched.
Ive been using UPP for probably close to 8 years now and just cant break from it. Just a great product. You can certainly use 105 first, then UPP atop. My recommendation? Either Danase Pure Polish or Four Star Pre Wax Cleaner first, then UPP, then Duragloss AquaWax monthly. Intermittent use of a QD after washes also helps a great deal.

Excellent advice there Patrick!

I just put DG 105 on my half-shield visor for my hockey helmet, hehe.
