Next Step

I just detailed my SSM TL Car.

Wash
Clay
Klasse AIO
Klasse SG (2 Coats)

Now what should I put has my last coats. I have some NXT. Should I use S100?
I guess I should wash my car before putting last coat on since I have been driving since detailing my car??

Any suggestions. Remember my car color is SSM.

Thank you

I would not use the NXT as it has some cleaning attributes. You'll be better off with the S100 which is a carnuba.

May I ask why you want to go any farther ? I also agree with Haw, although the SG is pretty durable. If you feel impelled to do so, S100 would be the best choice, but dont expect any long lasting results with it.

I use the Klasse twins followed by a final "topper" of S100. It works great for me, but I have a black TSX. I also enjoy waxing my car, so applying S100 every few weeks isn't a big deal.

I'm thinking the S100 topper on silver will be less noticable, although I never had a silver car so I can't comment from first hand experience. I've always owned darker colored cars (black, red, etc) where the "deep, wet" look is more noticable with the addition S100.

IMO topping w/S100 has other advantages, the largest being...your car will look cleaner longer. Again, may not be such a noticable difference with a lighter colored car. I can't really explain this phenomenon, but all I know is without the S100 topper my car attracts every little piece of pollen/dust/water/etc...and quickly loses it's clean & shiny look. I read somewhere that the synthetic waxes can create static charges on your cars surface. Maybe that's it...who knows. I just know the S100 topper works for me.

Give it a try, it can't hurt anything. If you like it, keep doing it. If you don't notice any difference...so your out a few bucks for the S100.
