  • Waxing... One or two coats?

    Just curious to see what most people do here. Do you apply one or two coats of your LSP?

    I only do one myself. I never really saw visually the benefit of two coats versus one. M21/NXT 2.0 looks great with one nice coat, IMO

    How about all of you?

    i do two coats for uniform coverage and uniform appearance. The chances are slim of missing the same spot twice also

        Depends on the occasion, but at the very least I do a standard LSP like M21 2.0, followed by UQW.

            ive also found that if i dont have time for two coats which does happen time to time, then i put the second coat on after the next wash which is usually about a week

              I personally don't see the point in two coats. Especially when I'm waxing every 1-2 months and UQD/UQWing every week.

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

                It is a personal preference I think.
                But I agree with Nick

                  Amen. One carefully coat works just fine.

                          I think the answer is "it depends" .

                            voted for one. I mostly do just one coat. One coat of sealant, one coat of wax. I don't like the 12 hour waiting period.
