Applying petes 53 wax 2 coats?

Do I have to let the first coat cure before adding another layer?

Yes. I have it on my G right now. I like it more and more each time I use it. Let it cure overnight between coats.

I washed, polished, sealed and waxed my car. However when I washed it a week later the paint was no longer as sleek. Did they wear off already. BTW I used maxi suds 2

do you wax one panel at a time then buff off or do you do the whole car then buff off?

Panel at a time. This wax doesn't need to dwell, it just makes it harder to remove.

Thanks black betty, im so excited to use it for some reason. I already put jetseal 109 and it looks really reflective, hopefully topped off with petes 53 its going to look wet. We'll see.
