I've heard that AIO+SG+Carnauba can create a haze in the finish. Is this correct, and can anything be done to reduce the risk of getting the haze? I have a black truck and black paint seem more susceptable to hazing, but I really like the look of a carnauba topper. Will a carnauba like S100...

I really like the look of Meguiar’s #80 followed by #16, and I was curious as to how frequently I could use #80 without negatively impacting the clearcoat thickness. How abrasive is #80? Is it not advisable to use #80 each time I reapply #16? Maybe once or twice a year instead? I know it...

Is there any need to allow the wax to "cure" before using the QD? I normally wax my vehicle in the morning, and I've been told that using a QD within 24 hours will remove some of the wax. It would be nice to remove the slight dust that accumulates during the day. Is this correct? If not, how...
