#6 vs NXT 2.0

[XXXLRG]

New to the forum so excuse me if I am asking a repetative question.

I have used both #6 and NXT 2.0 on my motorcycle and car and like them both. I feel that #6 seems to leave the surface "slicker" but 2.0 seems to be easier and quicker to use (plus it smells better). I uderstand that 6 is a polish/wax and 2.0 is a wax only but both do great at removing small amounts of tar and bugs missed during a wash. Both vehicles get treated very regularly so I'm not concerned about how long the protection lasts.

Which one do most users prefer and why?

Never used #6, NXT 2.0 is a winner for me making it hard to try other products.

M0616 Cleaner/Wax is a "Cleaner/Wax". Cleaner/wax is a category for a type of wax that cleans, polishes and protects.

Most consumer waxes on the shelf of your local automotive parts store are cleaner/waxes even though they don't specifically say that on the label. The reason for this is Joe Consumer needs a cleaner/wax because Joe Consumer is waxing a daily driver and the paint on daily drivers gets dirt over time when exposed to the world.

NXT is a polish/wax, it is not intended or formulated to clean dirty paint.

NXT will leave behind more protection ingredients than a cleaner/wax.

Keep this in mind however, anything that lands on paint that is strong enough or corrosive enough etch or eat into the clear layer of paint then it's strong enough and corrosive enough to go through the microscopic thin layer of wax you apply no matter whose wax you use.

For example bird droppings contain uric acid and the uric acid will eat through any company's wax or paint sealant and etch your car's paint.

So there's limits to what a thin layer of wax can do to protect paint from damage. I Just wanted to point this out for you and everyone person that click on this thread and reads it into the future so that everyone understands the limits of what science can do.


I'll let others chime in as to which wax others prefer....
