Using a carnauba wax on white car.

[tyrell3000]

Hello all, I have a pearl white 2000 maxima that I'm trying to make as glossy as I can. I'm using NXT 2.0 now, but I want to try to top it with a carnauba wax to get a little more out of the paint. Will I see any benefit from topping NXT 2.0 with a carnauba wax on a pearl white car?

Read those links. Imho the car will not reach its full potential unless it is properly prepped. A wax can only do so much. The prep is were its at.

+1 for J.A. Prep is 95% of a show car finish. I used to think my black L looked good until I did the 5-step. It blew me away!
