Hi there,



I'm getting my new car in a month or so and I want to make sure it stays "New" for a couple of years. I used the search tool on the forum but did not find my answer (phrasing maybe?).



Can I wax (gloss?!) a new car or do I have to wait a period before doing so? I figured out that Klasse was good (with all those post's) BUT can I put it on a brand new car?



BTW, the car is a 2002 Maxima 6 speed black on black (leather, bose & sunroof) wich is supose to be a dust magnet? :).



Thanks,

Amazing2





P.S. If I missed a thread talking about this, instead of flaming me, could you post the url? :)

AWESOME SITE!!!
 
Yes, Klasse can be applied to your new car. There is no waiting period to apply it, once the car has been delivered to you the paint has had plenty of time for the solvents to dissolve. Anyway, Klasse is breathable. Actually, the sooner you can get a sealant on you new car the better.
 
I agree. You can wax or apply Klasse as soon as you get your car.



New paint can be done immediately, on a repainted panel, I'd wait 30 days. Enjoy!
 
Black is a great looking car when it is shined up and clean. The down side is they get dirty so quick. I did a black Integra on Sunday and the guy had no sooner come out to check it out and it had a layer of dust on the bumper that I could see. They don't get any dustier than a white car, they just show it more. You pretty much have to wash it every other day to keep it looking nice. If I had been as fanatical about keeping my car spotless when I had my dark car then I probably wouldn't have ever left the car wash.
 
Klasse away!!!Do not worry about it. After a few coats of Klasse the shine will look unbelievable but, add a wax called Blitz, available from CMA over the top of Klasse, and the shine will blow you away.

Do a search on "Blitz Klasse" and you will see all the responses about this.
 
As everyone else says.. go for it! I would strip whatever the dealer has done to it immediately, prep the paint, and go straight to a polymer system of some sort. Cure time has already been taken care by the ovens at the factory... not to mention the time your car has been sitting on boats or trains or trucks.



Do your research and have fun with it!

First of all let me say nice car. 260 hp is pretty sweet. As the others have mentioned before me, you can most certainly use Klasse immediately on new cars. Remember that the dealerships often try to sell sealants for a few hundred bucks on brand new cars. So don't sweat it. Have fun! Laters.
 
I have concluded (me thinks) to try out BFWD and Zaino Z2Pro with each products spray sealants.
Iam impressed with both products and realize they are both superior in the industry,not to leave out others,their are clearly many that are stellar.
Just for my own experiment I will compare these products on my fresh new car,very carefully of course.I think I will have sum fun doing it and it should be a learning experience for me.
Now ,I will not post anything on behalf of either product or make any sort of comments unless Iam asked to.I am certainly not here to do anything like that.
I want to further my skills and see whats best for Red Jewell Tint on the new Camaro.
Iam going to wash the car with Dawn and clay bar the top and hood and see what maybe still on the clear coat.
I hope no feathers are ruffled,that certainly is not my intent....this is all in fun for me. :iagree:
 
You should consider using the clay on the sides as well, especially if the car was transported by rail (rail car break dust is really nasty).

Applying BFWD by hand is actually a joy, even with my arthritis. I highly recommend you purchase the Gold Finger Pockets BF-FNG-4 (I apply BFWD this way) or the BLACKFIRE Ultimate Wax & Polish Applicator BF-GLD (which I cut in half for use).

Just remeber to apply it THIN, THIN, THIN - as thin as you can get it! Your whole car should take no more than a ounce of BFWD (probably less).
