Title: Diamond bright treatment...can you still wax?
Post by: starlingadey on 08 December 2009, 09:21

I know the whole point of having this treatment is that you "never need to polish again" but does that mean you can still apply wax OVER that...or not. Anybody know please?

and its a false statement that you dont have to polish the car again :wink:

even after a full swirl removal a careful wash technique and wax you will still get swirl marks over time unless your planning on keeping it in the garage  :smiley:

These sealants will not stop scratches and swirls. If you correct the swirls with a polish, you will remove the sealant in the process so will have to protect your paint all over again.

Ive had it done before its good but i did keep polishing over the top with autoglym and that made the paint nice.

i've had "D'B" done to x3 of my cars and it does make a difference the key thing to get the best out of it is by using the shampoo & conserver with it, its designed to work with the stage 1 & 2 that would of been applied to your car when it was done, it can also be used neat on stubbern bits also tar etc. Thats my experience with it and its been a silver sccoby, red mk2 leon and also black vrs octy.
