I applied the jescar power lock then after cure time 12hrs i want to apply the jescar carnuba wax. How do i remove the dust that got on the car? Do i just wipe with the alcohol wipe or just with water?
 
At least a waterless or rinselss or QD spray. IMO you can apply Color lock right after you apply Powerlock. I do and have had no issues.
 
Wipe the dust off with a qd or waterless wash if you have it. Don’t use alcohol, it may diminish some of the PL. Waiting 24 hours before applying the wax would be more ideal.
 
Wait, we've got one guy saying to apply it right away and one guy saying to wait 24 hours. Those are pretty distinctly different instruction sets.
 
As for me I'm gonna wait until tomorrow, that will be over 24hrs, i think i will be ok.
 
Per bottle, minimum of 3 hours. I try to wait 24 for all sealants, but if you’re between 3-24 you can’t go wrong.
 
I just got finished with the jescar sealant and the jescar carnuba color lock, that stuffs the bomb! For making ur car shine like Bam!!, i used to use chemical guys, but i but i think i will stick with this, some of the jescar stuff is a little harder to apply like the polishes , but its well worth it .

I do it right away and have no issues, That is just me. I know I could be wrong...but again, that is just me. I I figure the products are all in the same family. But I can attest that my ride looks great!

I know I may be on the Detailer's Probation List of a Detailer's No No, but I hope that will change soon!....LOL
 
I always give sealants at least 12 hours to cure. In colder climates I would go with 24 hours.

Given the bottle says 3 hours, which is a really short written cure time, it doesn’t surprise me that you don’t see issues doing it right after.

Blackfire sealant is supposed to cure for 2-12 hours, but I’ve read that it’s 98% crosslinked within the 2 hours, so the additional time may be improving the final durability by allowing the final 2%, but is it going to make any noticeable, measureable difference to a normal person? Hopefully not, it won’t to me.
