Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze

C-



I think you might be going overkill as well - AIO 2x a year is probably just fine - especially if you're going the clay and carnauba topper route.



I use the P21S paste wax on the same white Mercedes paint, and can honestly say that:



I saw a difference in just SG and SG covered with P21S

The P21S was incredibly easy to apply

The P21S is actually fairly durable



Check out the product reviews section - I listed my experience with P21S there. Honestly - now, that's my QD. It takes all of 20 minutes to do my entire ML320 with P21S after a wash. It wipes on, wipes right off. No need to cover trim (no residue), no hard buffing, no curing time - nothing.



I'd just go the clay and AIO route twice a year (which is what I plan to do - right before winter starts, and right after winter's done). Then, you can ground the car to do the SG application. In between - just throw some P21S on, and your car will always be smooth, reflective, and very well protected.



Everyone's regiment is different - but so far, in the three months that I've owned my car, through a very muggy + occasionally snowy NY winter, the detail has held up incredibly well.
 
Though a 2002 car or new car may not need AIO, it could benefit from the cleaning and smoothening of the paint. This coupled with clay will make your surface ultra smooth. I really don't feel that you need to use AIO more than one time a year though. 2 times a year on a brand new car may very well be overkill.
 
Revised Strategy= Klasse AIO 1 or 2 times a year depending on the condition of the car's paint is in six months, followed by two coats of Klasse SG and then a carnuba topper. Dont know which carnubato use or how often tp apply it and How do I clean the paint before i add layers of carnuba? Thanks again guys your the best! Here is a pic of my car with its 3rd coat of SG

Hey Don-



I'm curious - do you think there's anything we do here that wouldn't be considered 'overkill' by a non-Autopian?



Hell - my wife wants to know why I nearly fainted when she called me the other day and told me 'the car's a little dirty - I'm going to drive through the car wash'.



That should be the forum motto - 'Overkill is what we do best'
 
I say just let the guy do what he wants on his car. It's not like it'll look worse if he 1) uses clay 2) uses AIO 3) uses SG every month.



I personally go completely overboard only twice a year on my car.



Nice finish btw, keep up the great work.
