do you need to apply a coat of wax over this product

You don't need to...it would probably make it last longer though. What I did with my car was use two coats of the Turtle Wax Color Back and two coats of Nu Finish car polish. My car looked amazing after doing this. With the Nu Finish, it lasts about 4-5 months for me until I need to reapply the color back and nu finish because the clear coat on my car is worn off.

I was told the same. I did read the contract and it stated no waxing needed. I haven't waxed my car and it looks good and shiny so I guess waxing is not needed.

This is not really a wax-- rather a wax fortifier or glaze. It's probably a wax formulation but highly diluted.I'd keep it off vinyl, leather and most non-glossy plastics.

Very difficult to do if you did not liberally apply the wax beforehand. You can try buying another can, or get some APC (all purpose cleaner) dilluted at 1:3. I used Wolf's APC and elbow grease to remove over spray.

No wax. Has a conditioner that makes application very nice and easy. I really like the way it beads up water. I use it on my truck and my vette.

Yes, I did. It will darken it a little, especially in a scratch. I was unable to find a light color wax.

No need to remove any base products before use. This is one tough application though. Use sparingly! Just a very light amount spread as far as it will go, let it dry per instructions and buff off. Any heavy application will give you a work out trying to remove / buff. I found that a "quick detailer" spray helps to clean up any swirls left by the wax. Ultimate Quik Wax and lot's of others are much easier to use but not as durable.

Not personally. It's a product that should be safe for that application, however, as it is food grade. It has enough wax in it that it can be buffed out to a sheen, as well.

Make sure all old wax is off. I would try 2 coats. Be sure to let first coat dry thoroughly before applying 2nd coat. use a sponge on cloth with no lint to apply. Clean with mild soap and warm water.

This product is a sealant so it needs to go on first. I believe it goes on the first time in two coats, the coats need to cure 20 or more minutes before removing and putting on another coat. I just used the sealant and no wax but Chemical Guys have a video on their web page showing the application process and how to apply wax if you think you need it. I would suggest watching the video on application and getting your cars finish clean first will make the applications and your car look better.

you will need to add more wax later but it comes with your first wax and gloves. you will need all day to warm it and apply it

You would need to use a product to remove the oxidation. Wax will only cover it up until it dries. 3m makes a good line of products for this.

This will not be a problem. I would suggest that if the car has not been waxed in the past six months that a light paint finish cleaner(Meguires has a good product) be applied first, then a good wax. This would insure that the car paint finish is well protected and will look like it just came off the assembly line.

I don't remember if we did!. Sorry, but it went on so smoothly and evening with a sponge mop (with an old towel). We then buffed it with our electric buffer to bring out the shine.The wax has been on for almost 3 months and it is the first wax in 27 years that has 'worked' on our natural wood KITCHEN floors. I am extremely pleased with it.

I used my own wax and everything seemed okay. I think you should be fine I used my own wax cause I didn't really like the finish the 3m left. I wanted a better shine.

Short answer:NO. Long answer: There is no need. This Professional model keeps the wax at exactly the right temperature by safely cycling on every hour for 8 minutes. Beware advice to use a crock pot. You can easily scald yourself with high temps and shorten the lifespan of the wax.
