So I applied my first layer of KSG yesterday night. I`m planning on applying a second layer tonight. I had to drive to work today (about 20-25 minutes each way).



Should I rewash my car? Or can I just use Meg`s Final Inspection and wipe down the car before applying my 2nd layer of KSG

I myself would err on the side of caution and rewash, but I`m pretty paranoid about marring and I bet plenty of people would just do the M34.

I would rewash. To wash a car that is hardly dirty at all would take me 10 minutes.

Ten minutes :lol, I think that`s how fast my neighbours wash their cars. I would definitely rewash. You would be surprised at the amount of light dirt your car picks up... just give your towel a quick wipe and uh oh. I`ve never been a fan of using QD except if my car has been in a garage inbetween waiting for sealants to cure. ONR or opti-clean would work too though.

I`m quite fanatical about layering KSG and Zaino Z2Pro....and I always RE-WASH if I`ve driven the car even for a short distance.

Use a car shampoo with no wax in it.

I`d rewash no matter what LSP you use.

Ah, I only read Accumulator`s post before I started. I went with the QD and it worked out great. I will rewash next time after reading the overwhelming majority recommendation of rewashing.
