I polished my car and i applied until now 1xKSG, 2XDWG, 2X KSG.

Should i continue with more KSG 1 coat every week or it is better to put some nuba or other lsp to maintenance that finish or to add more depth...

Also is there a ''magic number'' of KSG coats??
 
I never understood the point of layering KSG. Isn't it a sealant that is supposed to last long and is hard to remove but doesn't look so amazing? Then I would prefer putting a coat of something that looks good, is easy to apply and remove and it doesn't have to be very durable because it's applied so often. Megs NXT 2.0 comes to mind.

it looks fine but i have no idea about durability. also i think that as more coats you apply you can have better results.is that true??
 
IME the magic number for KSG looks-wise is around 4, but it's a kinda subtle difference. For durability it's around 6, and that's *not* a subtle difference.



The durbility differences are quite significant IME (note that I wouldn't spend a minute on this if there weren't a payoff ;) ). Washed with a KSG-friendly shampoo (e.g., Griot's Car Wash), six layers will last so long that you'll polish to remove marring before the KSG is dead. Or at least that was *my* experience, and that's on a year-round dog-hauler that gets used hard. No point in going beyond six as that lasted longer than anybody'd go without polishing (even if they wash as I do).
