Sorry if this is a stupid question but I need some help on the concept with layering waxes.
Right now I wax my DD with Zaino AIO and then put on Collinite 845IW right after. This lasts me somewhere around 6 months.
My question is do I always have to Zaino AIO before I put on the 845IW? If I prep the car and put on Zaino AIO first then do a layer of 845IW and then maintain it by doing 845IW say every 3 months, will that work?
The part I don`t quite understand is whether the wax wears off by getting thinner and thinner or does it lose the bonding with the paint and fall off that way. If it loses its bonding with the paint, then the base (Zaino AIO) would be the limiting factor in terms of duration. Else, if the latter were true, then I could layer and layer to keep up maintenance till I need to go through another AIO.
