My Grand Sport has been paint corrected and coated with Kamikaze Myabi. While it looked great, I preferred more of a deep wet look gloss that comes from carnauba since this car is not a daily driver. Long term protection was not my ultimate goal. I read about McKee's Jeweling and talked to a couple of guys who had used it so I decided to go over top the ceramic coating. I'm very happy with the outcome....this is the look that I wanted. I did two coats with my dual action buffers. Here is the results....

The McKee's jewelling wax has abrasives in it which help with the appearance the OP wants to achieve. However, after two coats applied with a DA, how did that impact the Myabi? That white sure pops, and that is not easy to do.

The Myabi is surely long gone after polishing the car twice.
The McKee's37 Jeweling Wax was something I had considered, but I ended up buying a pad-dependent pure polish from Poorboy's World instead. I apply it at a medium orbital speed using Buff & Shine blue finishing pads. It does a great job of getting the surface as close to glass as I can get it before applying my glaze and wax.

Thanks for your comments......My guess is that I did remove the Myabi during the twice over with the McKee's and the red foam pads that I used. While my car looked very good with the Myabi....after looking at it awhile I decided I preferred the look of carnauba over the ceramic. Since my car is not a daily driver and I do love rubbing on it.....I'm happy I did what I did. I was really "blown away" after the second coat.....I've been detailing cars for years and I've never achieved this level of gloss and "wet" look before. If this is what you're are looking for then McKee's Jeweling wax is a great product....very easy to work with. Thanks.
