    One layer of wax will remove the previous layer only if it is a cleaner wax,



    You could always come to our Detailing Meet in the spring for WI/IL members. Check out the thread in the Hot Tub forum.



    I did see a date somewhere about a detailing seminar/class at College of DuPage sometime in early January. I forget where I saw it though. I`ll see if I can jog my memory...

    ~One manâ€â„¢s opinion / observations



    Yes, No & Maybe...



    Solvents provide a lubricant and aid the adherence process by working their way into the microscopic gaps and valleys of the previous `layer` softening it, providing each subsequent applications carrying agent (solvent, oils silicones or emulsion) are not so concentrated that they degrade or remove (as in the case of a cleaner wax) what has been previously applied.



    The carrier system (solvents) allows the product to fill and level the paint film surface to produce a flat surface (this flat level surface is more pronounced with polymers due to their molecular alignment characteristics). This level surface optimises the paint film surface`s desired optical properties (i.e. surface reflectance, clarity, gloss, and depth of shine)



    Also be aware that the both the product and the foam pad may be non-abrasive, but application pressure if not kept to an absolute minimum and using use a very light and even pressure, may re-introduce surface marring and/or removal of the previously applied product.



    ~Hope this helps~

    What gets overlooked too often is that one must be a student before becoming a teacher.
