Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

hey wilco,
thanks for posting your finds. I juss used some 2.0 myself on my ride along side with some UQD to improve "slickness" so far its' been only 1 day. I juss dusted my car...so far so good.
but again, thanks for documentation.

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

righto
so its been 1 week since i waxed my car with nxt2.0

something is a lil weird....
it stopped beading well. i'll need to document my experiences via a side by side comparison with nxt 1.0 to make my assumptions valid.

whats more, the surface feels totally unwaxed. from my strong memory, nxt 1.0 would easily slick off dirty even after 3weeks. it seems i'll need to detail my car again, and double check ive got everything right - which im sure i have.

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

Hi guys,

so ive been trying to get my hands on nxt2.0 for YEARS BABY.
and yesterday was the first time i had tried it out seeing i am 1/4 way through my 2yr old tech wax. (seriously i wax frequently and yet the bottle is still not finished, sheesh talk about value!)

anywho, i applied it after doing claybar, some mild paint cleaning, areas of scratch x and the surface was a smooth as glass.

what has got me questioned was why (to my eyes) was the surface feel not as sleek as nxt 1.0? after my final wipe down, it was sleek, but just didnt feel like an oooozee sleekness as nxt 1.0.

after leaving it overnight, it honestly felt like it had a SEEMINGLY thin thin layer, so thin its as though it wasnt waxed. previously, 1 coat of thin nxt wax 1.0 would make coffee cups slip off - even more so if left overnight, however this was different?

anyone shed light? btw i shaked the bottle prior to application.

Try two coats...that should improve coverage an slickness.

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

yea thanks mike

i did follow up the whole car with QD, it did feel 'more' sleeker
well its been 3days after i waxed it and i placed an empty coffee cup, it didnt slide off. lol.

not to worry, i'll keep experimenting with this new product. at least i know its on! hydrophobicness is working just fine. maybe its the new polymers not sleek-ing well with my paint, as its a single stage.

Don't know.

See comments like this for NXT and other products all the time.

The only way to really know what's what however would be to do a side-by-side with both products and it's usually not reliable to go by your memory of how you think something felt in the past.

I don't ever get that deep into this myself. I trust the product to do what the manufacture says it will do and I get results that satisfy my car care goals. After I'm done waxing my car or a customer's car I usually clean up and move on to something else trusting that I've done my best regardless of any measurement in how the paint feels.

If you want more slickness, mist on some UQD and then feel the paint, maybe do a comparison with one section just the wax and another section with UQD

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

I understand about not getting on black trim, but I don't think I'm perfect and I'm probably not gonna tape off my car every time I wax it...

It's as though the people that design cars have never waxed one, if they had, they would probably find something more do-it-yourself friendly to use for trim versus pebble textured plastic and black rubber.

Kind of like they did with these...




As for what you decide to use on your Corvettes... see my signature line...

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

Well, that quality is one that you will find with almost any wax...so you have to take it for what it is. I personally just make a point of either taping off areas that I don't want to wax, pre-coating them with dressing such as #40 or Hyper Dressing (Makes it easier to clean off the wax) or use an eraser to remove it.

TBH, rarely if ever run into this problem...maybe someone else that does can offer better suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestions... TBH if I only had to do this twice a year then I'd probably tape it off like you said...

Hi Joel, seeing how this was your first post to this forum,

Welcome to Meguiar's Online!

Now onto your comments...

Meguiar's teaches people to only apply car wax to car paint and avoid applying it to any kind of black plastic or rubber trim. Sometimes this means slowing down and being more careful.

Some people like to use painter's tape to tape off plastic and rubber trim so if they do accidentally stray off the painted portions of their car then the wax won't come into contact with the rubber and plastic trim.

Mike,

I understand about not getting on black trim, but I don't think I'm perfect and I'm probably not gonna tape off my car every time I wax it... Just takes to much time... I know that I can take it back, but I'll just probably relegate it to my wifes car and get something else for the vettes..

Thanks

Re: NXT Tech Wax 2.0

so while I've been trying NXT2.0, the thing I'm, not liking is that if you get it on anything black, it doesn't come off... This is very dissapointing to say the least.. Any ideas if I did something wrong or this is just the way it is... If so, I'll be switching to something else real soon...
