Question for NXT users
I have always put on a coat of polish before waxing my car. When you use NXT do you polish first or NXT only? Thanks,

I claybar'd the car, then used the NXT. I plan on using the Booster spray in between. You'll love the NXT. Very :cool:

Re: Question for NXT users (MisterC)
I did a Dawn wash, Griot's machine polish #2 with a Porter Cable and then NXT.
Next wash I used the Booster Wax and then Booster Wax every third wash. Very happy with the results so far :cheers:

I called the Mcquires tech line and ask the same question. I was told that with the new NXT you did not need to use anything else.

Re: Question for NXT users (MisterC)
My paint was fine so there was no need to polish or anything else. I just put on the NXT and I'm quite pleased. The stuff is some slick!
All the best. :yesnod:

Re: Question for NXT users (jedicowboy)
Took mine out of storage, washed it with NXT wash, used NXT, used NXT booster spray.
That was weeks ago and it still looks stunningly beautiful!

Re: Question for NXT users (GTB)
I just did mine for the first time today. It was spa day for the Vert. I washed with Mr.Clean Autodry, let it sit, and did the last few drops with a chamois. After that I rubbed it with the clay bar. Then rubbed in NXT scratch X by hand (with microfiber rags) and followed with same SOP on NXT tech wax. Incredible difference!! I though I messed up because the hood looked blue, it was reflecting the sky! Way too cool. I'll try to post pics tomorrow so I don't get the "this thread is worthless w/o pics" comment.....
Got all my stuff at Pep Boys, worth every penny! :yesnod: :) :)
