Carnuba over Mezerna FMJ?

I just did my Campenella White Touareg with Claymagic, Merzerna FPII and FMJ. I happen to have some Pinnacle Souveran Wax that I was thinking of using for added shine and protection. Is it OK to use this over FMJ? I also purchased AJT after the many good things I've read here about this product but haven't used it yet. I've been hovering around here for a while but I have to say that the one thing that still perplexes me is what products are good to put on top of what? Some of the other Spray-on WO products I have in my arsenal:



AW

FK425

Pinnacle CM (Like this a lot)

What will give me added shine and protection and won't really be a waste of time?

Thanks!
 
I have found that when I top a sealant with a carnuaba I think the oils in the topper usually negatively effects the durability of the sealant. I usually like to stay with a system/products made to work with each other. E.G. Zaino Z2p/Z8 or PS/CM

Everything that I've read contradicts the above as long as it is one of the pure waxes rather than those with cleaners. And example of this would be 'The Perfect Shine' on this site.

Agreed. I have been doing this for years with no issues. IMO, and experience, as long as you do not plan on layering more sealant, the carnauba topper is great and best of both worlds. Even, Zaino which in prior years people were hesitant to layer with carnauba, now you hear more who do.
 
Z5 is not a real polish so to speak...It is not going to get rid of much swirls if any. YOu can definately top FMJ with a Nuba. I have been doing this for a while on both black and white and it looks great. FMJ topped with JW CJ.
 
Just make sure the layer for your sealant cures for 12-24 hrs before applying the Nuba on top. And make sure it's not a cleaner wax either.
