Question Wax question (Auto Glym SRP)

I've washed the car, next I will clay bar the surface, then I plan on applying Auto Glym's Super Resin Polish followed by P21S wax.
I'm really most concerned about applying the Auto Glym SRP. Is it OK to apply the Auto Glym SRP at that stage in the sequence?

It looks as though nobody has experience with those specific products. Judging by the description, "polish", the sequence should be correct. Cheers.

Henri,
I used P21S Carnauba wax and like the results but it didn't last very long. I keep my car garaged and only drive it in the spring/summer/fall and the wax just didn't last more than a few weeks. I switched to Rejex and it lasts a long time and produces excellent results. My .02 worth. I used Klasse polish prior to the Rejex/P21S and it's great!

Here are the results...

I forgot to post a pic to show the results. Pic was taken by another Pelican in Jult 2010 in Oxford, OH...

Hi,

I have used SRP after washing and before a carnauba wax and that works just fine! The nice thing about SRP is that the fillers are thicker and that that creates a nice surface when you have small superficial scratches or swirls. Topping it with a good carnauba (I use Poorboys Natty's) creates a very slick result and when you maintain is by applying a new layer of wax regularly, it will stay that way.

But mind that it all depends on what the surface is like after claying the car....

It turned out pretty good. I like the Auto Glym SRP. I tried applying it by hand which really didn't do much, then I used an orbital polisher which made ALL the difference. This was my first time using a clay bar and a polish; It's been two years since I waxed it last so it needed the attention before storing it for the season (next month).

The P21S seems good but like Art says, it doesn't last long. I'd like to find another wax that doesn't leave a residue yet lasts long and gives a hard finish. I might have to try the Rejex.
