Mahirap ayusin ang textured plastic bro, lalo na kung nagasgasan. You need to copy the texture kasi, not like paint na icocompound and ipopolish mo lang. Have them repainted nalang siguro.

hindi ba mabilis ma strip-off ang wax pag lagi umuulan?

Is there a curing time for Meguiars m21 (syntethic sealant) before applying a wax over it?

Is it advisable as well to do multiple layers of 476s then 845 over the last one?

Generally sealants need 24 hours of curing time before applying another layer of sealant or carnauba.

I've tried 2 layers of 476s, no noticeable change in durability though.

Also tried applying 476s and layered 845 above it after a day, again, no noticeable change in durability.

BTW, our car is 24/7 parked outside, rain or shine. That's why it gets contaminated easily with 'libag' or dusts formed from rain and baked in the sun.

Even on a fresh coat of 476s it is still hard to remove with just a regular wash.

So a single coat would suffice? what do you recommend sir? 476s or 845?

476s for durability, 845 for the ease of application, although madali lang naman talaga gamitin si 476s basta manipis pag apply, nakaka pagod lang kasi hindi siya kasing 'spreadable' gaya ni 845 kasi liquid na siya.

Ok lang naman mag double coat ng wax, para lang sa 2nd pass mo mas sure na nalagyan mo ng wax lahat ng area.

I usually let the sealant cure for about 4 hours before I apply wax on top of it.

I think one single coat of 476 would suffice. but as sir ronki mentioned, you can do a 2nd coating pass just to make sure wala ka nalampasan.
