Default Muliple coats of Klasse AIO ok?

Looking to pick up some Klasse AIO. I know it's a cleaner + synthetic wax, so does applying multiple coats do anything? Or will the 2nd coat's cleaner remove the 1st coat's wax?

I know the sealant can be applied in multiple coats, but I haven't decided if I want to get that yet as I've read 1. it can be difficult to remove and 2. sounds like multiple coats of the sealant can take quite a bit of time (the longer it cures, the better...such as overnight).

Thanks for the help!

I always do two coats of AIO just to make sure of good coverage anything more than that is really a waste as it is a cleaner. You can add coats of SG or another sealant or just top it with a nice carnauba. I have let my truck go with just AIO on it for several months any it still was holding up. That vehicle is outside 24 hours a day and driven in every kind of weather and it has done jsut fine with AIO.

Thanks speed bump. I was concerned the cleaning properties of AIO would result in the 2nd coat removing the sealant of the 1st coat, essentially nullifying 2 coats.

What is your experience with the SG? Is it difficult to remove assuming everything (application and removal) is done by hand? Does it take a while to cure?

Thanks.

The 2nd coat of AIO WILL remove the 1st coat, so I don't really see any point in applying more than one coat. Regarding SG, you have to be careful to apply it VERY thinly and evenly, or else you'll have a hell of a time buffing it off. I thought it was a pain in the ass myself so I have since upgraded to Menzerna FMJ for my sealant...

The second coat ensures complete coverage as the likelyhood of missing the same spot on both coats is minimal.
