Polymer Sealant over AIO

waxman · 08-21-01, 06:11

I have half a bottle of Meguairs Polymer Sealant left and I am wondering if anyone has ever tried applying it over the AIO. I am sure no one has but just curious. The bottle claims it has some mild cleaning properties so it would probably just take off the AIO(I am not using the Klasse sealant glaze after reading a couple of posts about people having trouble with it, no matter how much you try to persuade me). I found the Meguiar polymer sealant product gives a great shine(I believe better than caranuba, but I am a newbie somewhat), was easy to apply, and lasted a long time. I guess that is why it costs 16 dollars a bottle.
I also find it funny that on Meguiars website they state that the professional products are not sold at retail stores. I always get mine at the local auto supply store Murray's Discount Auto.

The #20 would remove AIO. what trouble have people had with AIO? AIO is a very good product , that is very easy to use. You should get a sample of it .

Andre:

His problem is with SG. But I will say the same thing about SG. It is *very* easy to use. Just remember -- thin, thin, thin. If you can see it go on, you are using too much.

Applied properly, it is easy to remove. Particularly so if you use a non-carnauba QD on your buffing towel. I use Final Inspection. The SG comes right off!

No problems with the AIO. Problems with the Sealant Glaze. The Klasse Sealant Glaze(SG).

I was reading to fast and i got them mixed up. If used correctly Klasse SG is easy to remove , just use a MF towel and a non carnauba QD.

Waxman,

I, too, was hesitant about getting the SG off after reading all the threads here. But I read BradB's review on CMA

http://www.autopia-carcare.com/klassealtes.html

and decided to try it.

Result? I don't know what everyone complains about! Perhaps I'm lucky, but I have had no problems with removing SG. It actually is easier than removing a standard consumer-type wax (Turtlewax, etc.).

You really should consider it, the shine and durability is excellent.

blue skies,
Andy

Get yourself some FI, a foam applicator, and a good MF towel, and go to work. Make sure you allow the SG to sit for at least 20 minutes. And remember THIN, THIN, THIN!! Find out what your missing!

Dont be afraid to try the SG. After the first time I used it I was hooked!! If applyied correctly it is VERY easy to remove. I dont even have to use a QD spray. I just buff it off with a Miracle Towel. Give it a shot, I think you will like. Remember, very thin coats. If you ask yourself: "Did I put enough on?" then you did it correctly.

Good Luck!!!

If you had the experience I had with NuClear a few years back you would understand why I will never try the sealant glaze.

At least I think it was called Nu Clear.

Two totally different products. I applied SG with really thin coats and removed with a 100% cotton cannon towel with no QD. Same amount of work I use with dried Meguiars #26.

I have seen blue coral touchless acrylic a few years back, product was just plain garbage. Klasse is much much better.

POs as everyone implied/said Klasse AIO will be compromised because of Meguiars #20's cleaning properties.

Yes!!! Thats it!!!! That is exactly what I used!!!!!!!!!It streaked it faded, dulled and cracked. It dried almost instantly when applied!!!! It took paint remover to get the thick junk off. You could not wipe this product. It was sticky as glue and had to be applied with a sponge evenly.
