      I kinda think of them like 2n1 shampoo/conditioners. I really like #6 also. Don't forget that a sample of Cons. cleaner/wax comes with the clay system.

For areas like these you usually don't' want to do a multiple step process so you want a product that cleans, polishes and protects in one step.

          Pick up some ColorX or Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax, they should be in everyone's tool box.
          This is a great suggestion! Now I know what to do with the sample of Cleaner Wax that I got with my Meguiar's claybar.

              I have all three in my collection, and love them all!

              Meguiars Cleaner Wax is just an excellent product. To the person just interested in getting results without a lot of fuss, thet's what I direct them towards. I actually like the Zymol cleaner wax as well. I think the Meguiars is easier to work with though.

                i have all of them but would choose NXT for my truck

                i use GC on my Dads truck, i realy like the look it gives on metallic paints, i bought DC3 and have only used it once.

                    My favorite combo is NXT 2.0 topped with #26. Color X is a fabulous product. I used it on my uncle's 1996 Explorer, then topped with the NXT 2.0/M26 combo. It looked great! View writeup here. Note to self: Need more money to buy more products.

                      Soon,I will be trying out NXT Tech wax 2.0. Although some of you have said,'you get what you pay for'. It maybe the cheapest,but is still an excellent wax.I last applied it nearly 3 months ago.My car is always outdoors 24/7,right on a busy road,buses,lorries etc.I washed it today,and the water still beads off like I waxed it yesterday!

                      So,I would prefer to have voted for all of them.

                        i've been using the nxt 2.0 mostly, never had the chance to try the DC3, still unopened... does it give the same beading as nxt/GC ?

                          Hi Ganesa,I havn't tried the tech 2.0,but everyone on the forum loves it. So i'm going to order some and try it.I can't tell you,therefore if it beads better.You say you've got dc3.......Use it! or use it on some of your freinds cars or whatever.

                            Six bucks?

                            I just bought a bottle and it cost me $29.99 Aussie $, yes that's the normal retail.

                            What a real rip off for a poor quality polish compared to other quality products available at the same price.

                                For Meguiar's LSP I say stick with M26 and NXT 2.0 (I have not tried the synthetic sealant 2.0...#21 maybe? so I'm not sure how it compares to NXT or if it's pretty much the same product in bulk sizing).
