NICE. I got to try the NXT this weekend. I always use the Meguiars Gold Class Liquid Wax.

looks awesome...NXT looks awesome on SS cars. Really brings out the depth ad color well. The detail spray and spray wax is pretty good in between full wax sessions

good work

how long do you have to wait after buffing the first NXT application out before you do another coat guys?

I use NXT also on my MB Z...it looks awesome with one coat. I would like to layer it if possible.

Nice looking Z! I love Nxt! For best results you should try applying one coat then apply one more 24 hours later. That seems to be the best way to go with Nxt. It has mild cleaners in it so it will somewhat remove any old coats underneath it if not cured properly. Nxt is great stuff, been using it for a while now. Tried Zaino today and have to say I am unsure. It didnt blow me away like I thought it would and Nxt hides swirls better also IMO. Check out www.meguiarsonline.com they have an awesome forum over there!
Frankie: I usually start on the hood and work my way around the car and by the time Im done applying wax its time to remove.

One of the best things about NXT, besides how your car looks afterwards, is how the damn surface of the car feels.

Like a babies' @ss!
(and no that's not what I go feeling on my spare time)

If it didn't, we couldn't exactly call it a wax or sealant, could we?

I too just used NXT's spray wax. I was sceptical of a spray wax (it's been like 10 years since I've waxed a car) , but, it looks amazing. I'll be applying the second coat in the morning and taking some pics. Just under some incandescent lights in the garage it looks sooo beautiful. I spent about an hour just admiring my beauty under the lights... like someone said ... fell in love all over again.

The wax was so easy to apply and remove.. I look forward to paying my girl more special attention in the future. pics to come..

I think the Meguiar's website suggests at least 10 hours before the second coat of NXT.

Absolutely incredible looking, I can't wait to try it out on my CS. Given how close the SS and CS are in color, can I expect a shine anywhere as good as that?
