Different Steps

[JJ1]

I usually just wash, dry, maybe some ScratchX where needed, then NXT Tech Wax. I've been hearing the steps should be something like this:
1. Wash
2. Dry
3. Clay bar
4. Swirl Remover/Paint cleaner (if needed)
5. Glaze
6. Polish
7. Sealer

What step does NXT fall into? What's a good sealer?

I assume you mean NXT Tech Wax. It will be your last step. #7 Sealant

4. Swirl Remover/Paint cleaner (if needed)
5. Glaze
6. Polish
7. Sealer --> NXT Tech Wax


Waxes, Paint Sealants, Paint Protectants, different names for products that do the same thing, protect the paint.

Your 5 & 6 are kind of the same thing depending on what you mean by polish as we make cleaner/polishes and pure polishes.

Thanks, I just read the NXT bottle, it looks like I'm following the steps on there. I'm guessing glazing and polishing can be skipped?

Yes.
