WHICH wax is first?

[AjNavo61490]

I was to vary wax layers on my car to give it the best bead and best look. I have both C 845 and Souveran. Should i do the C 845 then the Souveran, or visa versa?

If you were going to do that process..I would do the 845 first then the Sov as a topper...

845 has a high solvent content and I think if you topped Sov with it you will actually remove the Sov

actually just try one or the other first to see if you like the look of just one on the paint first...

I'd go with 845 first. Don't think from everything I've read that Souveran will touch it for durability. I would also be curious to see what you though of the two of them in a side by side compare. I haven't used Souveran and have settled in on 845 as my Carnuba mainstay. I wouldn't opt to spend the extra money unless the result was noticeably better.

Do 845 first then Souveran, Souveran will last about 1/4 as long, you don't want that as your base coat unless it'll be the only coat.

I agree with the above. 845 is some of the most durable stuff out there, and as stated above, has a very high solvent content. I would do 1 layer of 845, then gently top it off with Souveran the next day. Definitely a great combo for durability + looks!

Good luck

:iagree:. The most durable first. You'll love the Souveran on top.

Since climate is warming up, why not just use Souveran every 6 weeks or so, and save 845 for winter protection.
