  • Dirt/dust attraction

    I was wondering if anybody has had a problem with nxt wax attracting dust .Or after a rainfall was there alot of dirt stuck to the car compared to other waxes you have previuosly used?

    I hadn't noticed that big of a problem. There seemed to be some dust attraction when using DC soap or AA soap (forgive the use of Armor All soap, it was in my younger years. This past March!) I switched to NXT soap. Then the dust attraction problem went down tremendously.

    Helps??

      Tis my own opinion that acrylic polymer sealants (as a class) create a static charge.

      We actually ground most dark cars if we've done much buffing, cause there's plenty dust... Additionally, our outdoor environment is quite dusty (construction, 40,000 cars per day, etc., so we ground 'em outside, also.

      Makes a difference.

          My experience with NXT is that the dirt doesn't seem to stick to the paint. It washes off very easy compared to the carnauba wax products I've used. I also don't seem to get as much dust buildup as I did with carnauba or Zaino. I also use NXT on my painted wheels and NXT definitely holds less brake dust than carnauba. YMMV.

            I thought I was have a dust problem with nxt so I went back to #26 as an experiment..........same dust probelm if not more. just seemed to be more dust in the air in general this spring/early summer. dust goes down allot after washing once with nxt wash.

              We've made cables to attach to the frame and cold water pipes. Jumper cables are a quick and easy option, in the right setting.
