Klasse Twins on my Silver Jag - Need assistance please

[ajmrn30]

Here's my brand new baby, 2006 Jaguar S-type in platinum after using Klasse twins. My questions are:



Is there anything else that I can apply on top of the Klasse SG to make this shine "wetter" looking and/or make the finish last longer?



Also, what QD product would most of you recommend for my car? Any product better on a silver finish or best to use with Klasse?



I will appreciate any input.

Layering SG 24 hours apart each with 3-4 THIN and properly done layers is best for depth and gloss .

IF you can find it - Sonus acrylic Spritz between layers as a QD before adding a layer and Sonus Acrylic Glanz over top the final layer will add durability also .

You can also put SG into spray bottles and spray it on and spread until cure for easier application as well .

Wash with Sonus shampoo as all three are designed to be used with the Klasse twins .



NOTE >>> this product > http://www.autopia-carcare.com/son-220.html is NOT the same as Acrylic Spritz and contains carnuba

I find that #16 works best on silver cars for high reflectivity and longevity. I use it on top of NXT but it would work as well over Klasse AIO. I was not impressed with SG, have it my garage, used it once or twice but it's just not that good, streaks and is hard to remove. The only downside to #16 is that it's very hard to get, try West Marine.

AJ, just copy the "IMG" link in photobucket under the picture you want to display, and then paste it here.



BTW, SWEET ride !!!

If your looking to top it I would look into 1Z Glanz Wax or P21s, both look great on Silver.

A few nice wax toppers for silver are Poorboys World Natty's paste wax gives a nice wet look , FK1 Pink Wax is another. You may find some other good picks if you page through the Click & Brag section here , there's usually some pictures to help make your choice easier. :buffing:

I've just polished (SSR2.5) and sealed (Carlack68) my car today. Carlack68 is supposed to be the same as Klasse AIO. I'll be topping it with P21S tomorrow which is apparently to be a good combo. My car is a very similar silver to yours, so I will post tomorrow and let you know the difference it made.

the Sonus Acrylic glanz is certainly the crowning touch with Klasse - - it gives a real boost to the shine and was intended to be used following SG!

buellwinkle, not familiar with #16, please enlighten me.

Should look good, I do the smae combo often on silver, but sometimes add 1Z Glanz between the Carlack and P21s.

 

[MikeWarner]

I don't have any 1Z Glanz, but would it be worth doing a layer of NXT before the P21S instead?

 

[Richt]

You could do, not sure how NXT looks on Silver though, Dont know if it darkens ormutes the flakes/colour.

Silver cars will never have much depth no matter what product you use so instead you want a wax with very high reflectivity instead and for that, nothing I've used does better and holds up better than Meguiars #16 Professional Hard Paste Wax. Due to EPA regulations this was discontinued last year but there are still pockets of the product around. Actually learned about it from a friend that has an S-type Jag and a silver MB. I have been using NXT for a while on my silver MB & Honda but when I put #16 on top of them it put them on a whole different level. I would still use Klasse AIO is a cleaner/wax, nothing wrong with that as the first step.
