You won't need any wax on-top of the 1.5, although you could apply wax over c1 if you wanted.

If you're using c1/1.5 you wont need c2 as well.

Taping isn't needed for application no, this is only really used during polishing to stop the lacquer that you remove from getting everywhere, because it's a nightmare to clean-up!

c1/1.5 can be applied to plastics/headlights yes.
hmph, interesting C1 i think is a definite must, as i chose not to have the guardex applied to my paint from the dealer, which i assume is something similar to C1, as they said it gives paint protection for years.

did you apply to your plastics / headlights?

I don't have a garage, and need opinions on where i can take my car to do this kind of work... any ideas?
