How often on average do you SG between big the twice a year Klasse jobs

Not counting the carnauba or other wax toppers how often (on average) do you add layers of SG to your initial 3-5 layer Klasse job? Once a month? Once a week? Once every 3 months?

Finally, although not in the poll, what's the largest number of coats of SG you've had on your car at any given time.

oh, one more question, what's the longest you've gone without adding another layer of SG (again carnauba not included)

Still working to get 3 coats on both cars, being doing one car every week , so that makes it one coat every 2 weeks ...

Just yesterday I was able to to get one easy coat (the third) of SG on the Altima ... looking forward to get similar results on the Leon.

I would say 7 months without another layer of Klasse Glaze added, swirled up my car when the winter started and from there I covered the car and hardly used it. Too cold to detail and I barely looked at it so I held off until last week.

I wasn't aware that most Klassers do an initial 3-5 layer job. I personally do . . . I'll be Klassing the black top half of my car sometime soon since I won't have to drive for a few weeks . . . I plan on at least 7-10 layers of SG before I move on to Blitz wax and then perhaps S100 on top of that.

AIO strips off your old layers while adding a fresh single layer.

You can also use a paint cleanser like Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Lotion.

Or you can use a 50/50 solution of rubbing alcohol and water followed by a through rinsing.
