Hi Karsoon

 

Very nice. thumbsup.gif Did you do scratch X before NXT?

How long did you let the NXT wax sit before you buff off?

Can you update us the performance of NXT after 2 weeks.

From my experience, the NXT wax gets wash off after about

5 shampoo washes and the swirl marks re-appear.nod.gif

Thanks Jagash.

I got the scratch-x just in case if I cant cure my scratch on my bonnet with NXT. In other word,

I did not use the scratch X. wink.gif

We waited ard 15min for the NXT to sit in before we started buffing off. It was stated on the bottle as well.

I dont expect the shine to last for a week, not to mention 2 weeks. As I always park my car under sun/rain

and usually shine will be gone after 3 days. The only way to keep the shine is to wash my car every twice a

day. But I will be happy if I can have that shine for a week. wink.gif

 

Most wax will just cover the swirl marks. So, this is no expection.

Thanks for the info.

I was on NXT for 3 months and although the result was good, it did

not last very long just like you anticipated. I now changed to S100.

The first time I use it, the difference between S100 and NXT was quite

amazing.nod.gif

 

The first time, I did a thorough wash, then the S100 SEC (Shine Enhancing Cleaner) followed by the S100 carnuaba wax.

The 2nd time (1 week later) , I did the bonnet and the boots/spoiler but with an additional process...wash, SEC, scratch X and carnuaba wax.

The 3rd time (another week later) , I did the bonnet alone.....wash, SEC, Meguiars No. 7 and carnuaba wax.

The 4th time (another 3 days later)...wash, SEC, NXT and carnuaba.

 

Later today, I will try...wash, SEC, scratch X, Meguiars No. 7, carnuaba wax.

I think this combination would be perfect. I will post pictures as soon as I buy a digicam...yup!thumbsup.gif
