Default Is it OK to use Carnuba Wax over a Synthetic Polish?

I have read through the waxes/polishes and claying tips.What I'm wanting to know is can you use Turtle wax ice polish after claying and then put a carnuba type wax on after the ICE? Don't know if you can use a synthetic type polish such as ICE then put a carnuba wax on as the final coat?All info will be appreciated.Thanks,Clinton in okc,ok.

Yes you can, here's my routine (ice polish (i am switching over to obsessive detail polish tho), moose wax (carnuba), wet wax (carnuba) and seal)... don't forget to seal it once you've waxed!

Yes, you can use the Turtle Wax ICE polish before laying down a coat of carnauba wax. A lot of professional detailers use similar methods because synthetic's have a tendency to reflect scratches rather than efface them. The synthetics will provide excellent protection and the carnauba will enhance the color to give you the boldness and shine you're looking for.
