I want to remove my Klasse SG layers

I did one application of AIO and then Klasse SG ~4 times over a span of two months. I have the somewhat infamous Klasse 'haze' similar to this on my car. I still have it after applying VM and then S100 by hand.
Is the best option to do a dawn wash? Or use my PC and new pad on my new and nearly flawless paint? Or something else??

AIO will also remove the layers. SG can definitely be tricky to work with.

Even though VM is supposed to be able to remove what's on the surface, I don't think it got through all your layers of SG.

I, like TW85, recommend you polish the car with either a polishing or finishing pad on your PC and start over. This should remove everything and get you back to square 1.

Or you could remove it with rubbing alcohol or PrepSol or a similar solvent.

Last time I mentioned that sometimes SG has coloring issues there was an almost lynching so I wont comment on your finish. I think if you apply AIO by machine then maybe follow up with another coat of AIO by hand you will be ready to reapply whatever you want. Other things will work to but I'd prefer this method if it was my car. Take pictures if you can.

So wait a second.

You can layer AIO but not SG? I just ordered AIO and SG, what steps should I use?

Nope you can layer AIO but once you top with SG you can only layer SG

I don't agree that you can layer AIO. Each layer will remove the previous.

I should have been more clear: you can layerAIO to a point largely to ensure you covered any area you missed with the first application. SG is the stuff you really want to focus on layering.

You can apply as many applications of AIO as you like to ensure complete coverage but after you are done you will have one layer on the surface. AIO is mostly cleaner with some protection. The cleaner would remove the minimal protection that AIO leaves behind. SG has no cleaners thats why it can be layered.
