  • My MBs with NXT

    I had the 300E and C230 professionally done by Brian and his assistant at Auto Express in the LA area (I don't have a rotary, the finish had been neglected for a year with several trips to car washes, etc.) Brian used NXT for the final step, and here is how they turned out with a Canon 3.2 Mpxl set on full auto:

    300E





    C230 hood





    C wheels reflected on E side panel in garage





    Overhead light on E hood, no flash. Note that even the mounting screws for the Ceiling lights show up in the reflection!



    Also, I really have to commend Brian's assistant. About 6 months ago my 90 year old mother lost her wedding ring - she has Alzheimers, and had no idea where it was. Brian's assistant (Rude of me, but for the life of me I can't recall his name ) found the ring while he was doing the interior. We hadn't mentioned anything was missing or given him any instructions to look for lost objects - we had long since written off the ring as gone forever. Nobody was watching him as he worked, yet he came over to where I was watching Brian do his magic, and placed the missing ring in my hand! Thank you for being honest as well as skilled.

      John, Thank you for the kind words, and for your wonderful hospitality while we were there. We really appreciate people such as yourself that appreciate our work and take care of their vehicles in the manner that you do.

      I will let Mark know how important that ring was to you, it will make him feel really good that he found it for you.

      Your pictures were better than mine !

      And that burito.....EXCELLENT !

      Thanks again.

                Update.

                I reported on another thread how easily the NXT cleaned up after exposure to tree sap. Having just cleaned this junk from the car with Final Detail, I figured it was a good time to give the NXT Booster wax a try. Results are below, and were even more impressive in real life (and in the large format before I downsized the pics from 2048 to 640 to fit on the screen):
