Beading Pics Thread
scottm72:
when you guys say 3 coats are you applying the 3 coats one after the other or a coat every time you wash for 3 washes, I take it you wont loose your wax through a normal wash,,, does it still stay on ?
LMJ:
You can do it either way really, Scott. Though I usually finish / seal my work with 2 coats of wax / sealent. Use quick detailer to make your top coat last a little longer during the drying of the car (spray on to wet car and dry with towel). I would recommend that you use luke warm water to wash with, as hot water could potentially strip the wax. Hope this helps?

Personally I would apply the coats with at least a 3- 4 hrs between coats. Any less than that and I don't think the wax would have time to cure/harden sufficiently to not be removed by the application of the 2nd coat. I always apply my additional coats after the next wash.
