The NXT wax did nothing for me on the car. Disapointed that i wasted all that time.

Not sure what you are trying to accomplish with the NXT if you say it did nothing. It's not abrasive, so if you are trying to polish out swirls, etc, then it wont help, but if you wants months of UV protection and water beading, I find it hard to beat...

NXT will NOT give you MONTHS of protection..maybe weeks but not MONTHS...if you want something that will give you true MONTHS of protection..Get Colinite 845...NXT is pretty crappy stuff that doesnt last long at all.

Well, we'll just have to differ on the NXT opinions then. All I can say is I last waxed my car with it in the fall and after driving it every day all winter long, it still beads up like it was just waxed yesterday...

No..you might think its beading and not actually any wax left..Go look on most detail forums..Pretty much 90% people will tell you it doesnt last for crap.

Don't know what to tell you, man. Been using it since it came out and love it. Glad you have a wax you enjoy too.

+1 on the 845. That is my winter wax. I know some guys love it all year.

The Fuzion is beautiful stuff 05xrunner! I've been using the BH topped with EX-P and then Natty Red.

paint sealants last pretty long.
i use several coats of sealant, then some glaze, with some carnuba on top.
having multiple layers give a deeper look.
