Finally got a chance...

... to give the new ride a good coat of wax and sealer.

I've tried many waxes in the past, but have had a hard time finding something that would hold up in the Florida sun. I used Zaino on my G35 which was awesome but very labor intensive. Then on my Tundra I used Duragloss, which went on easy and would actually hold up for 6 months in FL.

This time around I'm using Klasse AIO with Klasse high gloss sealer. Went on easy, and didn't leave a dusty mess at the end like most waxes.

So here are the results after washing, clay bar, one coat of Klasse AIO and 2 coats of sealer.

Let me know what you guys think.

It . . .

Looks "showroom" clean . . . I use Race Glaze - the same polish applied to our aircraft. Can't do 405 knots in the mall cruiser, but keeps it looking "deep".

I've been using Klasse AIO for years. I think if everyone knew about it in terms of both results and ease of use they wouldn't use anything else. I must say though that I'm not a big fan of the sealer, it's not quite as easy to use and quite honestly I think the AIO by itself leaves it looking outstanding!

I was hoping to get some day time photos but it was kind of cloudy. Hopefully it will stay clean long enough for me to do so lol.

But with Silver its hard to see the shine during the day as the color is not as deep as other colors. Like my Tundra was blue slate metalic and man that looked awesome when it was clean.

Yeah this is my first time using it and so far I like it. I know what you mean about the sealer. When I first put it on, it didn't feel like all that, but after I let it cure for a few hours it seemed to smooth out.

But I love the Klasse AIO and I like the fact that you can put it on everything. I did the windows and I don't think I'll use glass cleaner again lol.
