Meguiar's Premium Paint Protection Layering?

Can I layer MPPP? I'm not interested in depth of color. I only want protection for a trip to the Milwaukee area. Last time I was there, I got some industrial fallout crap on the hood and top of a new black Bronco. ( I haven't been back since 1990.) Right now I have two coats of MPPP on the hood and top of my new black Ram pickup and one coat on the sides and tailgate. Should I apply a second coat to the sides and tailgate. I really don't want to spend a whole lot more time applying MPPP because I plan to do a Blackfire detail when I get back to the wide open spaces of Nebraska.What are your suggestions? I'm an "old guy" who can't waste his energy.

Hey!



I just looked in my Meguiar's Pro catalog. It does say in it that MPPP does clean the paint. I would say that it has only mild cleaners; again to clean the surface lightly for the bonding process. Therefore, it may take off some of the previous coat of wax, but I doubt all of it. It would not hurt to add another coat if it has been a while since the last coat and to insure total coverage. Better safe than sorry!!!



But if you really want to know, you should PM Mike Phillips from Meguiar's (he is a member on this forum). If anyone knows this answer, it would be him!

I applied the second coat of MPPP just to be sure. The truck is looking great. Maybe I should stick with MPPP rather than even trying the Blackfire. Has anyone done a comparison of the two products? The one step process of MPPP is rather appealing to me. MPPP has a tad bit of cleaner in it and I think this might be a "+ " for me, because my "toys" get grubby so often.

Tim,



Thanks for the information. What should I do with the Blackfire that I have on my garage shelf? I guess that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.



There have been some pretty positive posts about Blackfire and the folks at CMA "love it" of course. And they do sell MPPP, but don't make as much off of it. When I ordered the Blackfire, I didn't know that it was THEIR product.



It's rather hard to sort all of this out. I think that I was better off before I ever heard of Blackfire, Zaino, etc.



I just want a durable wax/sealant that is realitively easy to use and will give a deep, swirl free shine on black vehicles.

try using MPPP as a base then topping some BF on top of it to try out instead of having unused product sitting on the shelf. thats what I would do, you never know if you would like the BF's shine.
 
Hi Tom,

I would not layer anything on top of the MPPP. It is my understanding that MPPP contains a certain properties that prevents dust build up on your paint. Therefore, layering it, you might lose this added advantage.



I sent you a PM. Let me know if you do not receive it.



I hope this helps!!
