Can Gold Class Wax and S100 Paste Wax be layered?

GC wax is supposedly a synthetic type of wax (yeah yeah, broad category) and S100 is a carnauba. Neither is particularly durable, but I figured in combination, it might be OK. I tried it out, and couldn't determine much...I'll have to do some further tests to see if it actually worked (stripe a hood with just s100, S100 and GC, and just GC). My only concern is that the GC is too greasy to hold the S100. I also determined that I'm not a very good judge of paint, considering that the region (both front fenders) didn't look a lot different than the region I didn't work (basically everything else.)



What I did was Scratch X the fenders giving a spritz of Quik Detailer when it was drying up untill the abrasives seemed to go away some, then I used the GC wax and then S100. It felt a lot different, but the looks and repelling of pollen weren't much different than the part that I didn't touch at all (I think I used Turtle Wax finish 2001 a few weeks ago...not completely bad stuff)



Thanks for any help, whether it be bashing my methods or helping me modify my ways.
 
As long as you layer the S100 after the GC then you should be ok. Gold Class apparantly has some cleaning properties to it that may take the S100 off. I would always layer a paste wax over a liquid wax if you are going to do layering. Give the GC a day or two to let the oils evaporate and you may get better results with the two waxes bonding. :xyxthumbs
