wax

I have some Mother's Carnauba wax and Meguiar's Gold Class.....Would I be wasting my time by putting on more than one coat? Will each coat remove the previous coat?

The Mother's Gold Carnauba does not contain abrasives or cleaners, you will get some benifits of a second coat, but not a true layering effect.

The Meguiar's GC wax would be a waste to do multiple coats, since it contains cleaners, which would strip the previous coat. The only reason I could see for doing multiple coats would be for the extra cleaning effect if needed.

Mother's makes a pure carnauba wax and some cleaner-type waxes as well. The cleaner waxes will not layer, and as Carl said, even the pure carnaua waxes won't really layer or stack coats like a polymer product. If you are going to apply multiple coats of a carnauba wax, it would be better to use a nonabrasive or noncleaner wax.

Mothers has a California Gold Pure Carnauba wax (not really 100% pure, that is not what they mean) and a Mothers California Gold Carnauba Cleaner wax, you did not say which one you have......
