Topping Aquapel With RainX

Anybody ever try topping Aquapel with RainX, or would this be a bad idea?

I just applied Aquapel today. I was reading in some old posts that Auqapel seemed less effective than RainX at lower speeds. I was thinking that a person could apply Aquapel for longevity, and then apply RainX over it since it would be better for low speed driving. The RainX also might act as a sacrificial barrier and might extand the overall life of the Aquapel.
Thoughts?

Don't know how the ingredients of Rain X would interact with the Aquapel. Maybe contact PPG directly.

I would be very reluctant. The RainX may be potent enough to remove the Aquapel and that would be sad day!
