PB's PwC topped w/EX-P? - DetailCity.org

Jpeeps · 04-03-2004, 07:35 PM

I want to use a polymer sealant instead of one with carnuba for increased durability.

Is it a good combo to use PwC topped with Ex-p or is it a bad idea to top a carnuba with a polymer?

It worked pretty well for me. here are a few pics of my g35coupe with PwC and EX-P.http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/poo...bum?.dir=/e0b6

For "increased" durability, I would go with straight EX-P on a surfaced cleaned with Pro Polish.

You can mix and match just about any products you want............... but I doubt that it will "increase" durability................ I suspect it would "reduce" durability.

Won't the carnuba in EX tend to dissapate quicker than the polymer product EX-p?
I was just wondering if the polymer sealant would bond to the PwC?
Explain how would it "reduce" durability?

For increased durability, I'd skip the PWC, clean with PP, and go with only EX-P (layers)!

However, either the EX, or EX-P over PWC would probably be decent.

You should be a politician the way you danced around my questions without answering them.

in theory the ex-p should last longer as it is a pure sealant. I have used PwC topped with EX-P and i had no problems. I think using PP before the EX-P might be a better option for someone looking for the absolute most durability as PP will leave the surface completely free of anything which should give EX-P a much stronger bond.I can never leave my car alone long enough to really test durability. the longest I usually go is about a month then I usually try a new combination. Both PwC and PP work great as a prep for either EX or EX-P it just depends on the look you want. PP and EXP give a much more clear reflective shine. PwC and EX give a more deep wet look.I hope this helps a little:dunno

Maybe Jesuspeeps forgot to put the

beside his comment. in all honesty maybe he was just kidding:dunno

Take it easy boss:wow

I was just looking for more detail than, "it would probably be decent".

Don't take it as an insult. I appreciate the replies.
