Noob question: wax over Klasse?

Noob question: wax over Klasse?
I have a Dolphin Grey B6 S4. Got it in April. In May I put on Klasse All-in-One followed by 2 coats of Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze. Have washed it nearly every week since.
Two weeks ago (2-3 months after the first application) I put on All-in-One again, followed by one coat of the Sealant Glaze.
Now I'd like a little more shine. Should I put on something with carnauba wax? Or just more coats of Sealant Glaze? Also, before doing this should I just wash it, or do another All-in-One and Sealant Glaze before waxing? Advice welcome. I'm not a fanatic but I do feel I'm not getting quite as much shine from the Klasse as I'd like. TIA.

I suppose I could be wrong
...but it sounds to me like u may have spun ur wheels a little there...
The second coat of aio kinda started you all over again, and wiped out all the benefits of the 2 existing coats of sg.
aio should be ur base that handles all the "cleaning" and lays down some acrylic, and seeing how urs is brand new that first coat was probably all u needed for a season... thats where the SG comes in to play. the more coats u lay down the deeper the shine should get.
so instead of doing that prelimn step of the aio u would have been better off adding additional coats of sg.
That being said, many folks like to layer a quality carnuba over SG, like P21s (s100) or blitz to give the added depth of shine your looking for. You'll have that 8 or so month of protection with multiple coats of sg, and u can add the depth with the carnuba.... best of both worlds type of thing.
so my advice... get another coat (maybe 2 of sg on there) layer a few coats of wax over that during the next few weeks and I think u'll be pretty happy, oh and by the way...put the aio away till next year : )
just my .02 good luck

Thanks. I'm sure you're right. I'll just
make sure it's clean and add SG a few times and see how it does. Then I'll add carnauba if it seems I should. Appreciate your help.

Can you do it on the weekend so you don't have to drive it between coats?
If you do have to drive it, yes, wash it it again. You can wait a week between coats if you want.
I'm doing the following soon:
Menzerna Intensive and Final Polish, then Klasso AIO and Sealant Glaze, followed by P21S carnuba.
