1st, 2nd or 3rd Auto Glym Products?

[MrDub]

I have most AG products at this stage, i've always tried different way/stages to gain best results;


I use SRP then either UDS or EGP. Should i put HD over this? or would it be best to us just srp/egp then hd... i'm a little confused?

TIA

EGP is a sealant and the HD wax is a carnauba wax.. Basically both will do the same job, i.e. protect the paint from contaminants, so its generally a case of personal preference.. Although, if you want you can use both but if you do, use the egp first then followed by the hd wax.. The EGP may not properly bond to the paint if its put on top of the wax and thus reduce its life which is why the sealant goes first..

Also, some people say that the wax on top adds a certain warmth to the paint.. I have the Hd wax myself and find it excellent, it has lasted ages on my car

SRP and UDS are all-in-ones - i.e. they clean and protect, so use one or the other but not one after the other.

UDS is more for darker colours.

SRP + EGP was their original two step system going back donkies years, before HD wax was introduced to the range. As Robbie says EGP will not bond to much else other than SRP, acrylics or bare (pre-polished) paint. EGP will not work with UDS.

So SRP + HD Wax would be a better two step combo nowadays.

I wouldn't bother with a three step (SRP + EGP + HD Wax).
