Hello,

And what could I apply before that wax (and after M105)?
Thanks!

I'm a little confused.

What is your goal?

To maintain NXT 2.0, regularly wash your vehicle and use something like Ultimate Quik Wax after every wash.

Before that, you can apply any polish you'd like or a cleaner/wax.

You could use Ult. Polish or #205 after #105.

You should not need #105 every time if you are just doing your own car. #205/UP are both mild cleaners for regular dirt, some light swirls, etc.

You can use one of the Quick Detailer type sprays for cleaning off bird droppings and other random dirt safely.

And then one of the spray waxes like Ult. Quick Wax or Gold Class Quick Wax after future washes to boost the wax back up a little.

Is m80 good after 105 on a polish pad working on a rotary?

Is m80 good after 105 on a polish pad working on a rotary?

That sort of depends. It can be since M80 is a pretty light duty cleaner polish that uses diminishing abrasives and a fairly high polish load. It should easily clear up any holograms you may have created during your compounding stage and help to increase gloss. M205 is the more modern, more high tech equivalent of M80 though. It uses SMAT abrasives and doesn't have quite as much pure polish in it, but on an otherwise healthy clear coat finish it can do wonders for the clarity and gloss prior to waxing. Both M80 and M205 can be used with a rotary and polishing pad for light correction; with a rotary and finishing pad for final polishing; or with a DA and either pad for the same processes. Ultimately, which you choose will depend on what you're trying to accomplish, your preferred work flow, and how the paint responds.

Car wash, gold class or ultimate wash and wax, or ultimate wash and wax anywhere. Might I add UQD to UQW for maintenance, for a little less money, you can get M135 Synthetic Spray Detailer (gallon size) or my personal favorite, D155 Last Touch Detailer.

Re: before and after nxt tech wax 2.0

Around 2 days ago, I applied NXT 2.0 again to our BMW e39. It's been a while since I last used NXT 2.0, this time I used 3M Imperial Hand Glaze before applying 2 separate coats of NXT 2.0, as usual it left that deep but candy coated look on the paint. Sort of a short cut process, didn't have time for any paint correction, swirls were very minor, so I just went ahead with the glaze to conceal them (yes, the swirls will return no doubt) then applied the NXT 2.0 I just hope it doesn't rain.. But I am happy with the results, I have maintenance stuff anyway, I can just UQD it if some light dirt covers the car in a few days..

Re: before and after nxt tech wax 2.0

#83 is a possibility, but not really as much of a final polish as #80 is.
