questions on Klasse All-in-one

[97tbird]

I'm looking for a one-step product and after much research decided to go with Klass All-in-one.

My car has not been waxed/polished for a pretty long time, but the paint is in pretty good shape (just dirty) , and I thought I'd try to give this a try (it's light denim blue clearcoat metallic, and 97).

(1) Do i necessarily need to use Klasse Sealent Glaze (SG) after applying the Klasse Allinone? or is A-I-1 enough?(My objective is not a show-car look, but a decent shine/protection...car is parked outside)

(2) Where can I find the best prices on Klasse?

(3) after Klasse, is Wax-as-you-dry a decent enough product to keep it looking good for a while, until I'm ready to use Klasse again?(I'm a little lazy on waxing/polishing

)

(4) any other tips on using Klasse?(i'll be doing it by hand)

Any feedback from you guys who've experience with Klasse would be much appreciated.

Klasse is a very good product and pretty easy to work with.
1) It is not necassary to use the sealent glaze it adds luster and depth to the shine.

2) I have good luck here on price http://www.autopia-carcare.com/klasse1.html

3) I use detailers spray in between to keep things shiny but I don't think it prolongs the effectiveness of the AIO.

4) Klasse AIO is very easy to work with goes on and comes off quick and does not stain your rubber molding. The glaze is a bit more particular and should be applied in thin coats.

Depending on your climate, Klasse AIO will last for about 6 months...SG will may last for an entire year. You may apply SG using the WOWO method (wipe on/wipe off), but AIO is best applied with an orbital.

You may also purchase "Sonus Spritz" which is a detailing spray made especially for Klasse.

Good Luck!

AIO is a great base for any product. If you clay your car after washing (it only takes about 30 minutes and only costs $10) then using AIO by hand will be just fine unless you have severe oxidation. AIO is probably my favorite product but I have never used it alone.

I've used Klasse AIO and the Klasse Sealant since '96 when my car was new. Still looks like new. I apply it only once a year, but we don't have harsh winters here. Every 6 months would be better.

I recommend you claybar the finish before applying AIO. The sealant is not necessary, but it will make the AIO last longer. Apply the sealant only if the finish is really clean.
