Going out to my mother-in-law`s this weekend. I need to add more wax/protectant on her 93 Accord. In July I put on a coat of NuFinish (what I had on hand). She lives in central Penna., mountain winter weather ahead. I have 1000P, Collinite 476 and DWG on hand. My plan is/was to put on two coats of 1000P, but not sure about whether that will work over the NuFinish. I e-mailed the FK guys, they weren`t sure if it would work. What do you all think?
I can put on a layer of 476 then add the 1000P, or just go with several layers of 476, which worked well for me last winter on our own car.

IMO most/all of the nufinish from July is gone
any combo of the 476 & 1000p should be fine
but I would use an AIO first just to make sure every thing bonds
Id go w/ a couple layers of 476, it lasts a long time http://1person1million.com/img/149/r08c1006bidc/biggrin.gif

NuFinish is one of the worst products I have ever used. Complete crap IMO.

Eh, NuFinish is not great but it`s ok and has it`s uses. I used to use it when I was professionally detailing someone`s car and all they wanted was to "make it shine" because their paint was heavily oxidized and I didn`t want to waste any polishes and lsp`s cause they were selling the car, and even if I did try multi step polishing the results wouldn`t be perfect it anyway. So living with a NuFinish was usually all they could do. Spending 200 on a detail to increase the price of a 2000 beater to maybe 2500 isn`t usually a great thing to do. So I`d usually charge 100 to do a quick polish with rocks in a bottle nufinish and be done with it. And it`ll still look like a 2500 car.

Just use a paint cleaner and then use whatever you like. No bonding issues.:closed:

Throw out the nufinish and put 476s with/or 1000p on.
