Default how much is too much?

I love the way Zaino Z-2 works on my S. i have applied 4 coats on it within the 2 months of owning it, is it bad to apply Z-2 to often??? I let cure the proper time between coats.

especially as long as you finish off with a carnuba on top-

dont have to...

its extra credit after your last z2. some of us think it gives more depth and better dust protection- maybe a slightly wetter look.

p21s has been my go to wax for several years-

am using lusso oro (by finger rub, cause its soft enough) on my honda bike... really like it too.

similar shine, both are easy to use.
p21s must be applied and removed immediately. lusso can sit a bit longer-

can you apply it with PC or does it need to be applied by hand? how long should it sit? Apply let haze then remove (5 min)?

Apply by hand to prevent new swirls.
Allow to haze, usually 5-8 mins. Buff away.

right now, I only have 5 layers of z2 on mi carro, usually add 1 layer a month.
