Sov. might be more durable in hot, sunny weather. In regular weather it had lower durability than the P21S / S100.

wanabe,
i don't think i would sandwich it. i considered this too, and came to the conclusion that you don't need to sandwich. if you apply the s100 every 3-4 weeks, the zaino base coat always has an S100 protecting coat. if you lapse then at least the clear coat has protection from zaino. but if you sandwich, i doubt that the zaino would adhere correctly to a coat of S100 (which is why sal tells you to strip off any coats of wax). if you wanted to add some more coats of Z on top of your base coat, i would dawn wash the S100 off, add more zaino and then top with S100.

stwok- looks like two votes for s100 over p.s.! thanks for the input. maybe we need a new thread just on this! guess i will be buying s100 real soon-
mgiang7- interesting thoughts. so if you go to carnuba, you should normally not go back to zaino? some synthetics can be sandwiched, but i do recall reading that sal said to strip wax before applying zaino... i thought he meant z1 - first time- only.
so new question- do you apply s100 with the porter cable? (i already know boilers answer!)... how does s100 app and removal compare to zaino app and removal with the pc?
thanks for all the great help with this!!

It goes on and off sooo easy, it was too much trouble to apply S100 with the PC, but I did use it to remove the wax. You will not believe how easy it is to use S100. It's like nothing that I have ever used before.
Wanabe, I thought of you yesterday when my new Meguiar's catalog arrived. I opened it up and discovered that someone beat us to the punch....there was a cordless orbital polisher inside! I'm not sure who makes it, because Meguiar's had their name on

Who's going to be the first one? You have to report back to the rest of us, you know.
