Natty's Blue over Carnauba Moose Wax ???

As the title states,



I would hate to have my almost brand new tub of Natty's Blue sit all summer ..



How long would the durability be with this combo ?



Poli-Seal > Clearkote Carnauba Moose Wax



and then what effects if any if i topped this with Natty's blue ?



or is the Natty 's blue layer over kill ?





thanks for suggestions
 
I haven't tried that combo myself as I don't have either of those products. I'm not sure anyone here has either but I wouldn't say it's exactly overkill.



Just try it and let us know how it goes. :D
 
From results I have seen, the look of CMW is very nice and would be on par with Natty's Blue and probably pretty similar. It definitely wouldn't hurt to apply the Natty's but you may not see much improvement at all. It also is much less durable from what I have seen then the CMW which is great for a nuba. If you chose to layer, be sure the wash the car between layers to be sure to avoid smearing and wait at least 12-24 hrs.

I like the looks of CMW better than NB. Plus, CMW has better durability. I just traded off my NB, as CMW made it obsolete in my arsenal.



Same here. CMW has much better depth. NB over top will add a touch more wetness though.
 
FYI: latest update



added another coat of natty's blue and did not like the results.

so the finish has Carnauba Moose x 1 , Natty's x 2



I find Carnauba Moose Wax better by itself.



The Natty's Blue added a wee more 'wetness' in only a few places. Overall, it 'muted' the depth of the Carnauba Moose.



Overall, I'm going to recommend leaving Carnauba Moose on by itself and simply adding more layers of it instead of topping it with Nattys.
 
Interesting experiment. I have always found that just CMW by itself was good enough. I would go as far as saying that it is the *best* wax I have used in that price range. I have Natty's Blue as well, but it just sits on the back of the shelf.



Here are the looks I am getting from CMW---



 
CMW is without question creates the deepest look of any product that I've ever used. I've used it on two black cars and the looks is awesome. I'll probably just keep adding layers the next few months and top with Souveran and see what I get. For $20 I dont think there is a better looking wax on black (that's the only color I've tried it on).
 
I also tried a Souveran topper, and again didn't like the finish.



It also "muted" the finish i thought.



So those 2 tubs are simply gonna sit for a LOOOOooong time.. :-)
 
I love NB, but generally only use it on top of a sealant. I find it adds a ton of wetness and I really like it on bright reds and blues as it seems to darken those colors a wee bit. It's definitely not durable, but I knew that before I bought it. CMW is awesome, and is a staple, particularly on dark colors when there's only time for one LSP coat. Just my experience - I know it doesn't do much to answer the initial question...which already seems to be answered anyway. :)

Are you guys getting pretty good durability out of it?



I believe that Scottwax has reported the durability to be around 4-5 months. (Which is *great* for a carnauba and the looks it provides) But, he may chime in as I may not be remembering right.

well i have cmw and i bought nattys blue havent used it yet. im going to CMS as my lsp then im going to top it off with nattys blue. So the durability in the cmw will still hold up even thought NB is on top now? Im going to do a few coats with natty's. I want the deepest, wettest black car. I bought nattys to even have a better shine, more coats to put on i dont know.

If you want it to be super black, go with CMW. It darkens and deepens the color!
