    PB`s PwC topped w/EX-P?

    I want to use a polymer sealant instead of one with carnuba for increased durability.

    Is it a good combo to use PwC topped with Ex-p or is it a bad idea to top a carnuba with a polymer?

    For "increased" durability, I would go with straight EX-P on a surfaced cleaned with Pro Polish.

    You can mix and match just about any products you want............... but I doubt that it will "increase" durability................ I suspect it would "reduce" durability.

    Won`t the carnuba in EX tend to dissapate quicker than the polymer product EX-p?
    I was just wondering if the polymer sealant would bond to the PwC?
    Explain how would it "reduce" durability?

    For increased durability, I`d skip the PWC, clean with PP, and go with only EX-P (layers)!

    However, either the EX, or EX-P over PWC would probably be decent.

    in theory the ex-p should last longer as it is a pure sealant. I have used PwC topped with EX-P and i had no problems. I think using PP before the EX-P might be a better option for someone looking for the absolute most durability as PP will leave the surface completely free of anything which should give EX-P a much stronger bond.I can never leave my car alone long enough to really test durability. the longest I usually go is about a month then I usually try a new combination. Both PwC and PP work great as a prep for either EX or EX-P it just depends on the look you want. PP and EXP give a much more clear reflective shine. PwC and EX give a more deep wet look.I hope this helps a little:dunno

    Maybe Jesuspeeps forgot to put the beside his comment. in all honesty maybe he was just kidding:dunno

    There was an answer there. I guess you either didn`t recongnize it or wanted a different answer.

    in the interest of harmony - J`peeps - as far as durability go I can`t speak to EX-P but EX and PwC have great great druability and the EX can be layered like any other sealant. What the "with carnuba" adds is a depth to the paint the lacks in pure sealants (often called the plastic effect). The pro polish EX-P combo would remove the carnuba from the equation but PB makes all his products to work well with each other and other products. I have used PwC with UPP with no loss in durability or bonding.
