Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

[CWM3]

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

I am not a Meguiars Tech although I have been to a few Meguiars Garages and two of their Saturday morning classes.

Does this make me a "professional"? No.

However, what it does mean is that I have spoken directly with, and have learned from, the Meguiars team of professionals. Mike Phillips did answer your question and linked additional information from Mike Pennington also answering your question.

I have asked the same question, as have many others, that you are asking now. Meguiars waxes are formulated to work with one another. So, if you apply #16 then apply NXT 2.0 you will have no problems because NXT 2.0 does not contain enough cleaners to remove the wax applied before it.

With regards to Carnubas bonding with Sealants; that has came up on the forum in the past as well. A poster stated that the two would not mix and Mike Phillips denounced it and asked that poster to provide proof that the two don't mix. No proof was furnished and I agree with Mike Phillips that the two can be applied together.

Thats the best answer that I can give and I would recommend that you PM either Mike to get a faster, more detailed answer. This post may have gotten lost in the shuffle and if Mike Phillips is made aware of your question he will either PM you back or re-visit this thread.

Hope that helps.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

Time for me to step in...

Meguiar's Online Rules make it very clear that we do not allow the bashing of individuals. Simply put, it is alright to disagree but it must be done in a polite and respectful manner.

I strongly suggest that in order to avoid this escalating further, that you follow the phrase that we at MOL like to use in situations like this: "It is time to push away from the keyboard"

I have already sent an email to Meguiar's management for an official reply. Until that happens, I suggest a review of the Forum Rules which I have posted below.

Thanks,

Tim

Tim if you think I was being rude I appologize, as with many questions asked in forums uninformed people have a tendency to voice thier unsubstantiated "opinions" and thus add more cloudyness to what generated then question in the first place.

One says yes .. one says no ... some say try it ( don't know how that answeres the question ) and others totally run off topic.

I came to the Meguiars forum to see if I could get an answer from qualified Meguiars people.

The other uninformed opinions have already been posted 100's of times in other forums.

TY

BTW I bought my car in your home town ..

Are you a tech with Meguiars?

At least spell condescending right

None of us in this thread are a tech, so apparently no one will be able to satisfactorily answer your question.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

a) no
b) yes

To each other? You aren't making any sense. I tell you what. Go put on a coat on M16 and then a coat of NXT. If there is a pile of NXT on the ground because it didn't bond to the M16 or vice versa, please take a picture. I would be very interested in seeing that. If it doesn't fall off onto the floor and you still don't believe they will bond, please explain how-so.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

So your saying that if I apply a coat of #16 to my car and follow it with NXT
a) NXT won't remove the #16
b)NXT will bond to the #16

If so please explain how it bonds and what it bonds to? As carnubas don't crosslink and bond as sealants do.


BTW I'm not confused but more amused by your answer.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

Yes it will bond. I really don't see how you are still confused by this.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

I'm sorry, I never bought into the whole layering thing because I have never seen any real benefit from putting on multiple coats of wax on.

[roushstage2]

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

Right ... so you will put a sealant over a carnuba? And it will bond?

[Jesstzn]

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

You can apply wax and then apply NXT 2.0 without issue. ANY wax, including NXT, can be applied "below" NXT.

Re: Layering NXT or NXT 2.0

Poster below says it has cleaners and may remove some of the layers below.

It won't completely remove the layers, but it does have a sleight amount of cleaners in it. This is to help it adhere to the paint better. You can apply multiple coats of it though.
