I'd be inclined to say that as a general rule, the more you put on doesn't always yield proportionally better results.
It's more to do with the prep work. And I have no doubts auto perfection will have done this perfectly. So to some up, your not really going to gain much (much being the operative word) by adding loads and loads of waxes. And with adding more and more you also open the door to breaking down the original lusso. Adding some orange crush will add a little and make it feel soft again. But you won't be getting the difference of "pre AP's work" to after their work.
If I were you I would focus and spend my money on making sure your wash technique is dialed. And if you have the orange crush already, ye apply some every few months. But don't go crazy like 4 coats in a week lol
typed on my Phone so I hope it doesn't read too badly!

I personally found Lusso to be better than DJ Supernatural. Same prep work in each case.

All hard waxes will do this. I use tapered cotton buds to clean the the shut lines.

They shouldn't be doing that guys. It's possible you guys are using too much.
-
interesting ! whats best thing to apply the wax ? i normally use megs sponge applicators !
-
yep, there fine, but i find the smaller ones a little better.
and im not a fan of the megs logo on their applicators

Swissvax Zuffenhausen or Best of Show FTW....

WHERE DO I GET THE SMALLER ONES FROM MATE ?

I like using the DODO finger mitts to apply my wax as they allow me to apply thin even coats and they are soft as! Give them a go.
