I'd try the Detailing forum (off of the Mustang Forums) Some good stuff there, but onederfull's post was the most helpful....A picture say a thousand words.

If the NXT has any cleaner/polishing components, another coat will only replace what's on the car.
"Eliminates fine scratches and swirls" is in the product description and makes me question if it contain cleaning elements.

A synthetic wax topped with a pure carnauba will not remove what you have and should add even more depth to your black paint.

My car has one coat of Wet Wax (carnauba liquid wax by Obsessive Detail, site sponsor.)



This site has a great video on how to clay bar: http://paintcare-n-detailing.com/clay.html

the paint sealant was from pacpro a local detailing shop, i dont think it's anything special. you could probly find a good one at a detailing shop where you live. i think the paint sealant adds the depth, and the guy there said you could layer it w/ coats for more depth, some people put on 10+ coats of it.

and margarita girl may have a point w/ that cleaner wax issue and it replacing the old wax layer. but it does dry to dull haze which makes me think that it will add another coat. but i will do it and see if it makes a difference. and try that carnuba layer on top too and see how it looks.

obsessive detail is great site, and autogeeks is another good site too.
and margarita girl, your car looks very shiny and wet looking, thanks for the carnuba detailing tip.

margarita girl, I didnt care for the wet obsession from obsessive detail. I use a bunch of his products and I love them. In fact I have it listed in the classifieds for sale, discounted, of course. I'm going to try the NXT tomorrow. We'll, not happy with my new cars' shine yet.
