I recently picked up some NXT and being the incurable detailer I am, I had to try it. First off was "The Dad's" truck. Next up today was the wife's Jeep and of course, my Cavalier.
First off. I'd like to make a few observations.
It applies fairly easily (once you get the hang of it). A spray of #34 before the first application to the pad helps, and it takes a touch more than I'd thought, but it still spreads out really well.
I applied it by hand to the Jeep and to the Cavalier by P/C
I found that by putting the P/C on "1" and making the passes slow and deliberate, it applies the best (for me). I still feel a bit of 'pull' or 'drag' on the buffer, but it's nowhere near as bad as many products are by hand.
Once applied, I let it set up for about 45 minutes before buffing it off (terry towel for the Jeep, microfiber for the Cavalier).
While not difficult, removal was definately "different." When I first started bufffing it off, it felt like the NXT had really "bitten into" the paint and was holding on for dear life, but once a few passes had been made, the towels glided smoothly across the surface which became very slick. On some areas that were in the sun, I saw a bit of smearing, but continued light buffing eliminated the problem.
The Results:
On the Jeep, the color definately deepened and at least 90% + of the micro marring disappeared (it had AIO x2/#20 a few days ago). Now it almost looks like Porshe Guardsman Red see for yourself:

How's this for red?
