Gold Class wash & NXT

[vwguy]

I still have a good supply of GC car wash and being the cheap skate I am I want to use it up before I buy the NXT car wash. Any thoughts?

Hi Brian,

Currently, Gold Class Wash is Meguiar's premium car wash with the most conditioning and glossing agents.

NXT Car Wash is an excellent car wash too, but they are different and their price reflects this difference.

The one thing that the NXT Car Wash has that the Gold Class Wash does not offer. From this web page,

NXT Car Wash

Engineered water softener helps reduce deposits in hard water, leaving behind a spot-free finish.

Either way, they are both premium quality car washes specifically formulated for safely and effectively cleaning your car.

I know you are not suppose to mix products.... but has anyone out there mixed the two, could you get the best of both when you mix them?

I was afraid this was going to come up sooner or later!



Perhaps you could post this as an idea for a new product, in the New Products Suggestions forum?

Hey guys,

I am new to the Meguiars forum. Enjoying the posts.

I like the GC too. However, we have very hard water where I live. It will actually leave chalky deposits if left to dry. I may try the NXT and see how it does. I will still dry with a chamois, but maybe it will help with some of the spots left afterward from trim drips etc...

Note: I realize I need a filter desperately. Thinking about moving soon and don't want to spend the money on it.

Yep. I've done it.

Honestly, I couldn't tell a lot of difference in one versus the other. The sudsing action seemed to be more dramatic versus one or the other product alone (although slight) but, all in all, I couldn't really hammer down a clear-cut difference/advantage/disadvantage.

Like many folks here, I have a couple of gallons of GC along with a bottle or two of NXT wash. On average, I wash with GC one time and then use NXT the next. I really like them both...
