As the title states,



I would hate to have my almost brand new tub of Natty`s Blue sit all summer ..



How long would the durability be with this combo ?



Poli-Seal > Clearkote Carnauba Moose Wax



and then what effects if any if i topped this with Natty`s blue ?



or is the Natty `s blue layer over kill ?





thanks for suggestions

I haven`t tried that combo myself as I don`t have either of those products. I`m not sure anyone here has either but I wouldn`t say it`s exactly overkill.



Just try it and let us know how it goes. :D

From results I have seen, the look of CMW is very nice and would be on par with Natty`s Blue and probably pretty similar. It definitely wouldn`t hurt to apply the Natty`s but you may not see much improvement at all. It also is much less durable from what I have seen then the CMW which is great for a nuba. If you chose to layer, be sure the wash the car between layers to be sure to avoid smearing and wait at least 12-24 hrs.

I would exchange the Carnuaba Moose with Vanilla Moose since you`re going for looks.

Vanilla moose is not a LSP is it? I don`t think you can swap Vanilla moose for Carnuba Moose Wax.

I like the looks of CMW better than NB. Plus, CMW has better durability. I just traded off my NB, as CMW made it obsolete in my arsenal.

Same here. CMW has much better depth. NB over top will add a touch more wetness though.

My idea was VM and Nattys.

FYI: latest update



added another coat of natty`s blue and did not like the results.

so the finish has Carnauba Moose x 1 , Natty`s x 2



I find Carnauba Moose Wax better by itself.



The Natty`s Blue added a wee more `wetness` in only a few places. Overall, it `muted` the depth of the Carnauba Moose.



Overall, I`m going to recommend leaving Carnauba Moose on by itself and simply adding more layers of it instead of topping it with Nattys.

Interesting experiment. I have always found that just CMW by itself was good enough. I would go as far as saying that it is the *best* wax I have used in that price range. I have Natty`s Blue as well, but it just sits on the back of the shelf.



Here are the looks I am getting from CMW---

CMW is without question creates the deepest look of any product that I`ve ever used. I`ve used it on two black cars and the looks is awesome. I`ll probably just keep adding layers the next few months and top with Souveran and see what I get. For $20 I dont think there is a better looking wax on black (that`s the only color I`ve tried it on).

I also tried a Souveran topper, and again didn`t like the finish.



It also "muted" the finish i thought.



So those 2 tubs are simply gonna sit for a LOOOOooong time.. :-)

I love NB, but generally only use it on top of a sealant. I find it adds a ton of wetness and I really like it on bright reds and blues as it seems to darken those colors a wee bit. It`s definitely not durable, but I knew that before I bought it. CMW is awesome, and is a staple, particularly on dark colors when there`s only time for one LSP coat. Just my experience - I know it doesn`t do much to answer the initial question...which already seems to be answered anyway. :)
