Why top it with anything? HD POXY already contains Carnuaba wax. This product was tested with a gloss meter for shine against a shelf-full of leading products. It shines like crazy... don't dull down the shine by topping it with something else.

So if im correct, carnaubas have good shine but poor durability... How long will this last- realistically (with one one coat)

A full season or longer depending on your climate and garaging conditions. I have had the original coat on my truck for over four months and it's still going very strong. I live less than 75 yards from the ocean and the truck lives outside... basically the worst environment imaginable for a car.

!!!wow!!! thats amazing, a one step LSP that has a shine of a carnauba, and durability of a sealant!
Please have shipping to Canada set up soon! I want to give HD uno, a PC buffer, the HD poxy a try- before winter of course

I apologize for the shipping delay. I got slammed with the flu. Thursday is my day in the 3D warehouse to do the setup for USPS International.

Sounds great, I must try out UNO.

I would like to try this product out in my area where the climate is also very harsh.

If you don't mind, you can ship the product to me via DHL under my account

Just curious, what machine are you refering in the first post on the product application? DA or rotary?

Cant wait to get this here in the UK!

This may best be answered by DavidB, but can Poxy be successfully applied over a glaze like PB Blackhole or Danase Wet Glaze?

DavidB · 10-21-09, 03:16

Yes, but IMHO you are best applying it to a clean surface.

The three natural waxes in HD POXY give it wonderful properties for darkening the surface (jetting) and filling minor swirls, etc.

For POXY to do the best job it can as a sealer, it is best to apply it to a freshly cleaned surface.

HD POXY is a pure wax (no surface cleaners), so you can layer it after 8-12 hours of cure time for a deeper finish.

Here's another tip... polish with HD UNO, then go right over the HD UNO film with your first coat of POXY. You'd be amazed how fast I can do a vehicle this way.

So there is no need to buff or wash the car after HD Uno polishing?- if im going to apply POXY?

Nope! Like I said, I go straight to POXY from UNO without buffing off the polish film.

Now, mind you that I'm assuming the polish residue/film remaining is very light because you have not over-applied, and you polished it out completely.

POXY is best applied to the whole car before buffing off. For best results, allow POXY to sit for 20 minutes before buffing off.
