Since 3M Imperial Hand Glaze is acryl based and it contains no silicons nor waxes, I was wondering is it possible to affectively seal over it or will sealant mix with it and afterwards result in shortened lasting period?

I`m planning on sealing with Eagle One Wet Polish & Wax.

I`ve never tried the exact combo you`re considering, but here are a few ~random thoughts that might be helpful:



Wax over IHG is a time-tested approach. The wax seals in the IHG so it lasts much longer than it would on its own.



Many/most sealants won`t bond well to IHG, it`s too oily.



Many/most polishes will clean the IHG right off the paint.



While I`m not familiar with the E1 product, if by "polish and wax" they mean that it has some cleaners in it, then those will probably clean away the IHG (which is easily done).
