Kool I only hear positive reviews about FMJ Im already ordering some from Phil. I am more interested in looking for durability and long lasting protection. As soon as I get it I will post up a review.

Use both man! Longer lasting protection, and looks good.

[QUOTE=wanabe,Aug 24 2008, 08:34 AM]absolutely you can sandwich!!
it is now common practice-
we called it sandwiching because you top synthetic -after a few coats- with wax.

I use P21S over Klasse. Klasse isn't the easiest to buff off, but Bob (sole distributor in USA) suggested that I spray a little water on the surface, like spit-shining, and that helps a lot.

I find that Klasse leaves a very shiny, bright finish. And when I top it with P21S, it gives it a deeper, almost darker lustrous look.

p21s and lusso oro are ok, but working my way above those to other waxes. I bought my lusso oro back in January and didnt start using it until 2 weeks ago. Just a general wax for me, nothing special.

When you are starting to run low on Klasse, you might want to give Jeff's Werkstat a try (Acrylic Jett Trigger as a replacement for Sealant Glaze). Carlack is supposedly the manufacturer of both, but regardless, AJT leaves a similarly shiny finish and is extremely easy to use (wipe on/wipe off). I topped with S100 this past detail...

yes, i also use a quick detail spray- sometimes i use one that is carnauba based and sometimes i use a synthetic base... mainly depends on my mood!!
Can you provide a couple names of carnauba based quick detailers? I plan to order Werkstat Carnauba Glos, but that's more of a touch-up wax than cleaner... I do use their Quick Wash, perhaps that's enough.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. Do you know how long lasting the protection it provides?
