Team Adam's Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Polish -> sealant -> glaze-> wax. Sealant needs to bond to bare paint. If you put it over anything else, it will only last as long as whatever you layer it on top of....which is never as long as properly applied sealant will last.

mc2hill Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Sealant always goes on first. A sealant must bond to the paint to work effectively, a wax sits on top of the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z71_Denali Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 remember its okay to apply a coat of QS to say the front grill later on, on top of the glaze and wax if you anticipate your going to be driving through a lot of bugs! just eases the clean up and further protects the front of your car!

So does SVRT... Does look a bit odd, but clean is clean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckkilo3 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Don't forget to let the sealant cure before putting anything else on top of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3RMiTdot Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 is it nessasary to do glaze and wax, if you use something like quick sealant for a DD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07RS4 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 is it nessasary to do glaze and wax, if you use something like quick sealant for a DD? No, not at all. Glaze fills in slight imperfections and adds shine...and a wax is just another LSP. Some people prefer the wax over the sealant look, and feel that it adds more protection. Without a comprehensive review, who knows how much extra protection though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouarkie Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 will sealant strip off a coat of glaze or wax or polish? do i use sealant first or last. Sealant definitely does NOT remove glaze or wax. Sealant it a man-made type of wax. Benefits of sealant is it lasts longer then wax. Some people say a sealant doesn't give you the depth (paint looks wet) of a wax, but on my white F150 and metallic red Explorer I can't really see a difference. But like everyone else said apply sealant>glaze>wax. You do it like this because sealant won't bond to wax, but wax will bond to sealant. Benefits of this process is you get the longer duration of protection with the sealant, the look of depth using the glaze, then you get the benefit of protecting the glaze and sealant with a coat of wax.

Z71_Denali Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 sealant bonds to bare paint wax just sits on top of it. wax does not bond to anything, nor does glaze. they just lay there and look pretty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
