craig mac Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 Folks I normally use Autoglym extra gloss protection after i have gone over it with Autoglym Super resin polish...... Now the paint does not need the resin polish. I was going to Use Meguiars Extra Clear Coat Liquid wax, then put the Autoglym Extra gloss on top[] Will there be any issue with the above combo? Is there any need? Am pretty sure that the Extra Gloss can go on top of most, if not all waxes, but looking for any experiance of the 2 together? or similar? Craig
dipsy Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 Craig i did mine with turtle wax metalic polish on the newage jdm sti and then Autoglym extra gloss .The extra gloss is great makes the car more smother
darryl_martin Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Could try here mate, www.polishedbliss.co.uk have a look in the tips/guides section. Goes into what makes up different polishes, sealants, glazes, waxes etc and how they react with each other. A lot of reading, but quite informative
jcscoob Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Craig iv used both and the auto glym is well better IMHO ! []
darryl_martin Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 To be more precise http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/guides_protect.html If you can't be bothered to read all of it, most relevant bit starts under the pictures of the leon and integra. I believe the autoglym is classed as a synthetic sealant. Could be wrong tho'

slo2 Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 This thread is far too technical for me! None of the content makes sense. Is it about washing the car ?
craig mac Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Slo2 Its about weather i can use Meguirs liquid gloss wax then Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection on top of that................... Craig
slo2 Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Ok , I tend just to wash n go , well actually just go. Only washed the car 3 times since I bought it ( January). This is probably not the thread for me.

darryl_martin Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 A lot of the "polishes" you get in the shops contain a bit of wax for protection instead of being a pure polish (the idea is just to get the paint clean, remove swirls etc). A lot of the "waxes" you get in the shops also polish the paint and leave a thin layer of wax on top (the idea of a wax is just to leave a protective coat on your already clean paint). A sealant seems to be harder wearing than a pure wax so it would make sense to put a sealant on the polished paint then a coat of pure wax on last. If you put the wax on first then when it comes off it will take the sealant with it. Whether the meguiars stuff is a pure wax (no polishing properties) and can merely be laid on top of the extra gloss sealant and not polish through it is another question. All in all the only thing you may waste is a bit of time, worth a try in my book, see what happens
craig mac Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Well thats it washed and the Meguiars on..................[:|] (Dont think much of that stuff imho[:|]) Will get another wash the morns night as its threatening to rain me thinks, and i will extra gloss it and see what happens[] Craig
