Hello everybody this is my first post on this forum.I purchased both the Klasse All in One and P21S Carnauba Wax.My question is if i use Klasse All in one to remove the regular wax on the car then use Meguiars NXT Wax then to finish it off by using P21S Carnauba Wax.What kind of applicator should i use for these 3 products.Should i order a Klasse Sealent glaze or should i order the Meguaris NXT wax?

Welcome to DC!
The Klasse SG I haven't used, but it sometimes doesn't seem to be user friendly. Many people have great success, many have major problems. For that reason only, I have stayed away from it. You can buy lots of sealants that are easy to use, why take the chance.
Klasse AIO topped with S100 Carnauba, (thought by many to be the same as P21S:dunno), worked great for me when I was into the carnauba thing. AIO topped with NXT also looked good.

FWIW, why don't you try the AIO/P21S combination before you buy any more products?
The Meguiar's yellow foam pads from Wal*Mart did a good job applying the products mentioned, but the Viking foam pad that has a "doorknob" shaped handle is now my favorite hand applicator. I have flipped more than one of the Meg's pads across the room.:)

Thanks for your input.I also purchased the Meguairs NXT Quick Detailer,will i have problems using that with the Klasse AIO and P21S?...and most importantly what should i use first..the Klass AIO or P21S?
 
use the Klasse AIO and then the P215. the quick detailer is used to get small amounts of dirt, dust, bird poo, and bug splatters off of your detailed finish. make sure you read the directions on each container. welcome to dc.

How long will the P21S last,i ordered mine from Autopia.
 
it will last for different periods of time in different climates. i like to wax my car once a month. but im sure you will find what works for you.
 
I use AIO + P21S. It's a terrific combo on silver. Make sure you clay the car before you AIO...that helps.

Stay away from the NXT stuff. P21S gives a much better shine in my opinion and is a lot easier to work with.

Good QDs for P21S include Eiman Fabrik Clear Pearl and Pinnacle Crystal Mist. PB Spray & Wipe also works nicely.

If it's a brand new car do you need to clay?...and what is pinnacle Crystal Mist?...And why should i stay away from NXT,and what are some good quick detailers.I hope you can help me out with these questions.
 
"If it's a brand new car do you need to clay?..."

Yes. I just did a brand new Buick Lacrosse this weekend, and pulled a lot of rail dust & crud from the paint. It's takes 30-45 minutes tops, and is very easy to do.

1) Wash & rinse
2) Use your soapy wash & mit to lube the surface. Start at the roof, then the hood & trunk, then your side panels. Clay your windows too.
3) Use a utility knife and slice off a 2oz strip of your clay bar.Wipe the clay across the surface (4-6 inches, north to south). 4 passes per section. Inspect the clay & fold it in if you see crud on it. If you drop the clay throw it away because dirt/debrit from the ground will likely scratch your paint.
3) Rinse off the car after each panel and dry.
Never apply clay to a dry surface. The clay will stick to the paint, and it can be a pain to remove.

Using clay is very easy and very worth while.

"and what is pinnacle Crystal Mist?..." A QD spray to use after you wash the car. Some also use a QD on lightly dusted paint surfaces vs. washing the car with water. Most QD's will revive the 'freshly waxed' look and feel of your surface. I prefer to use Poorboys Spray and Gloss. After your final rinse, flood each panel with a stream of water, mist on Spray and Gloss and wipe off. You'll be amazed at how much easier it is to dry your car, and you'll love the glossy slick look and feel of the paint.

",and what are some good quick detailers".

-Adams detail spray and spray and gloss are my top choices. I typically use QD's on clean paint. If the paint is dusty or slightly dirty I use Poorboys spray and wipe, which is really a waterless car wash.


"And why should i stay away from NXT". -Many feel there are better choices. Use the search feature on the forum to do some research. You'll find likes and dislikes for most any product on the market. The trick is finding the combo that YOU like the best.

Thanks this helped.
 
Excellent. Let us know if you have any other questions. I would also consider adding a Porter Cable 7424 polisher to your collection. It goes beyond what you can do by hand, and does it quicker. Your finish will stand out from the crowd! If you stay away from compounds there's really not much of a chance that you'll do any damage to your paint.
