An afternoon with Meguair's Gold Class Liquid Wax

[Toalson]

I guess the detailer is more suitable for removal of minor blemishes, whereas the wax is more to extend the protection coat.

Thanks bro!

 

Ya lor, my car old liao... 7 years and counting.

[Soya]

i was comparing it to High Glaze 88 which is much easier to use, cheaper and offer better results. now it's Fusso 12 for me - sibei easy to apply.

[Toalson]

Though old but for its age, u hv maintained it well Keep it up. My target is to ensure that my ride would still be when it more than 5yrs

wats the booster wax?

 

THis is the NXT booster wax we talking about.

 

 

Whats the diff between this NXT Booster Wax and the Meguiar Quik Wax ?

Hi Brock,

 

If you are thinking of a fast clean up job, than I suggest using the NXT QD. FOr NXT spray wax, you actually need to apply it like a wax (but much easier) wait for it to haze than wipe off. You might wan to take a look at the following link on the spray wax,

Hi Soya,

Below is a quote from MOL by Mike Philip,

 

NXT Generation Spray Wax

Quik Wax

 

Either of Meguiar's two spray wax products work excellent by restoring a deep, rich, just-waxed look to your car's finish. The trick to using a Meguiar's Spray Wax and getting great results is primarily in your application technique. It's also very important that you're applying it to a painted finish in the right condition. The right condition is a finish that is in new or like-new condition and already has a good base-coat of wax on it. This is one of the reasons we coined the term, "Booster Wax" for the front label on NXT Tech Wax. The idea behind the term is to imply that Meguiar's Spray Waxes are product to be used on finishes that already have wax protection, not on neglected finishes in need of claying, cleaning and polishing.

 

Hopefully it helps to clear out your doubts.

Hi Gen2,

 

What's your take on NXT vs GC wax?

think i read somewhere in another thread that NXT also has sealant properties in addition to being a wax?

 

The price for both are almost similar, GC cheaper by a few bucks.

 

For your detailing sessions, you're using NXT carwash right?

Comments on the shampoo?

[Gen2]

What's your take on NXT vs GC wax?

Personnally I prefer the NXT look, deeper and wetter look. Because NXT is a fully synthetic wax so you can actually call it a sealant. But there have been very different views in term of the durability of NXT, some claim only a few weeks but others claim 2-3 months.

 

For your detailing sessions, you're using NXT carwash right?

For Meguiar car wash, I using the GC shampoo and have not tried out the NXT wash yet. I'm running low with the GC shampoo liao, so now considering NXT wash or the EO car wash. Btw NXT wash has received quite a number of good reviews from MCF and also from other detailing forum, so it should be OK to use.

Nice shine. I couldnt get such a shine when I DIY my own. Btw, is ur ride a EK3 VTI?

 

Cheers

[Gadgeter]

job well done..

[Imuya]

Nope EXi

 

hopefully can get VTi? or SiR?

[Imuya]

Hi Lokturne,

 

Hmm...been thinking about the "plastic-wet" shine. come to think of it, my car's front and rear bumpers are not metal but plastic, will it have any effect on the paint that was sprayed on it and consequently the effect on the shine that you can get?

[Toalson]

To achieve that wet shine, the natural wax will do the trick. But looking at ur work, its shiny enuff imho

[Brock]

Thanks. Will probably get the NXT QD Spray instead. I've still got lots of wax around...1Z Einsett, 3M Liquid, Soft 99 Authentic Gold.
