Did it mute the shine or deepen the appearance? I wonder if a topper would affect it's durability? Any relation to the most durable sealant zai-knows?  | |

I would not ruin it by applying a wax topper.
I applied a second coat this evening and it's looking better.
Tomorrow will be interesting with the machine application test.

1) Is it VOC compliant?
2) Do you have the MSDS for it?

This is looking very promising Dave. I have a 24/7 black volvo that I have to let sit in the sun and putting caruaba topper is not realistic for me as I would have to do it sometimes every couple of days (when it rains ect). I have been struggling to determine what sealant to get to give me the best (1) durability AND (2) deep wet look, so that I wouldn't even want to top it.
I am gushing all over this with anticipation!!

I need a durable product that is easy to work with.
This sounds like it has great potential. | |

I experimented applying it to a single panel at a time and the whole car at a time. Both methods work just fine. The product doe not really seem to care how long you let it sit before buffing off. I allowed one panel to sit over night and it buffed off with ease this morning. No white residue on the trim.
