Default NXT Booster Wax......

Stopped at Auto Zone after work and picked some up. Went home, washed, dried and gave it a shot. It was applied on top of a coat of NXT wax from last weekend.





So...what do ya think?

I like it. :cheers: It looks realy shiny, have you clayed it recently?

After driving in the rain here yesterday I just hit mine with a little Eagle 1 quick wax (on top of several coats of NXT & booster wax) and the shine was back. I started using the Eagle 1 instead of Meguiar's quick detailer and like it better over the NXT.

I'm sold on the products.

BTW, I've used the Eagle 1 on the glass and it comes out very clean & shiny and doesn't smear in the rain.

With that shine I thought maybe it was fairly recent.

Now that I've done it recently it must be part of routine maintenance for me.

I've fallen into the habit of claying twice a year. Once in the spring (just before the ClubVette car show) and once in the fall.

Default NXT Booster Wax......

Once the sun goes down, the hose is coming out and I'm re-zainoing my car.

NXT is very good, just to me, not durable enough. If you like re-applying it on a regular basis, all the power to you...definitely has great shine, I like Zaino's strength/shine combo better. :cheers:

do you have any pictures of it in the sun? I have a 90 steel blue and looking for somthing to really bring out the awesome color. I currently use Meguiar's Gold class, but I'm running out and might go with NXT or the Liquid Glass stuff.

We'll see about the durability of NXT since I've only had it on for one week. But, after doing the same process to get started with Zaino (wash, claybar, strip) the NXT application and wiping was done in less than an hour! You can do that every two weeks and still spend less time than Zaino every two months.

Just my .02

I'll post some as soon as I can. Lots of yard work this past weekend so she sat in the garage for most of it.
