September 18th, 2014 11:29 PM #2641LSPs are either Sealant or Carnauba Wax.
Sonax Xtreme Paste Wax Full Protect 1 is Carnuaba Wax and is an LSP. Collinite 476 Super DoubleCoat Auto Wax is also Carnauba Wax and is an LSP.
Nano Fil is sort of a Compound, while Nano Sil is sort of a Polish. Note that they only hide scratches and swirls. They fill and seal and do not remove paint. Refer to page 261 of this thread.
What steps were done in your car by BB 2 weeks ago?
At this early time, you might just need to use Quick Detailer and Quick (Spray) Wax for maintenance.
Assuming you still want to do full detailing, the steps should be:
Wash
Clay* (Optional for embedded contaminants)
NanoFiL* (Optional for deeper scratches and swirls)
NanoSiL
Collinite 476 or Sonax Xtreme (If you want to use both, I think better to apply 476 first)
And then afterwards:
Wash
Quick (Spray) Wax
Quick Detailer* (for removing dust, dirt, bird bombs, bugs, etc)

September 19th, 2014 12:10 AM #2642Thank you so much Sir Red, very helpful. Last question Sir, what is the curing time for Between applications of Fil, Sil, and LSPs.
I think BB already clayed my car before applying paint protection. I really want to start full detailing diy. I will just bring my car to BB every 4 months for thorough detailing which may include claying.

September 19th, 2014 10:20 AM #2643Fil > Sil > LSP, you can do each step immediately after the other.
LSP > LSP, refer to product instructions. Some product may require you to wait some time before next application.

September 19th, 2014 01:01 PM #2645LSP > LSP..
if you got plenty of time, it would not hurt to wait the next day for the next LSP or a 2nd layer of the same LSP. otherwise, a few hours will do.
optional, fun experiment:
- apply Collinite 476 on left side panels
- apply Sonax Xtreme on right side panels
- apply Collinite 476 > Sonax Xtreme on hood
- apply Sonax Xtreme > Collinite 476 on roof and rear
inspect the next day or after a week and check which you like best.Last edited by red_one; September 19th, 2014 at 01:21 PM.

September 19th, 2014 01:41 PM #2646Yes Sir will do that. Dont want to maintain 2 LSPs with same purpose anyway. Ill check which product yield best result. Im really learning a lot from you.
Having second thoughts though applying SIL by hand. Read that it is best applied using a polisher. But I want the satisfaction of having a real clean paint before topping it off with carnauba wax.

September 22nd, 2014 10:00 PM #2648Yes, apply to the whole car. Treat them like your standard compounding and polishing steps.

Sir, pasensya na po talaga ha. Noob kasi talaga ako sa detailing eh. Question po ulit, gusto ko lang po maging sigurado. Ibig sabihin na din po ba nito eh "SAFE" gamitin yung NanoFil at NanoSil. Gusto ko po kasi magDetail atleast every month (NanoFil > NanoSil > NanoGlos) pero apply naman po ng NanoGloss atleast twice per month and NanoSliq as a QD. Kung ganito po gagawin ko regimen eh "hindi" po ba madadamage yung paint ko? hindi po ba sya magninipis? manual lang po pagApply ko, wala po ako gagamitin machine. Thank you so much po.

September 23rd, 2014 04:54 PM #2650sir IMO lang po, safe naman lahat ng nabanggit nyiyo po pero na-observe ko lang is yung microtex products eh not long lasting kaya i am not sure if advisable ang twice a month baka kase wala na yung wax sa tsikot nyu specially if madalas ang wash at naulan pa. Though as a noob, mas magandang praktisan yung mga products na yan.
see my pahabol statement above. i mean, i can go on vacation anytime. but my spouse has her...
