Layering wax - NXT?

I just did a full polish on my car with a PC using 3M, Griots, and some P21S cleaner. On to the wax. I've decided to use NXT, but have a question. I'd like to layer it, but want to know how well it layers.

If it will layer well, do I let it dry and then apply a new layer without buffing off the first layer? Or buff the first layer and then re-apply?

I worked my way around, buffing each panel, then apply wax and move on to let it dry.



Also, can I use the PC with a soft pad to do the buffing, or should I stick with MF towels?

I don't see much of a difference...:think: Maybe after the wax I'll be :woohoo:



Oh. I hate removing polish "leftovers." What's the easiest way to do this?
 
you would remove the haze and typicly wait 12hrs and apply another layer



some folk beleive in layers and some dont , although you wont hurt nothing putting on 2 layers to ensure even coverage
 
....perhaps two coats to ensure even coverage but after that, ...meh. What I can tell you is that folks at Meguiars are not fans of layering in general and people like Mike Phillips have specifically said they don't recommend it for NXT. ....take it for what it's worth.
 
Apply a thin coat of NXT. Wait until it dries (10-45 minutes, depending on ambient conditions), then wipe off. Meguiar's recommends a second coat to ensure even coverage, with an optimal waiting time of twelve hours between coats; but many NXT users apply a second coat after only an hour or so, sometimes less. Sometimes one just cannot wait twelve hours.



See Mike Phillips's comments in this thread:



How much time to wait before applying a second coat of wax?
