Liquid or Paste Wax?

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I really don't have a preference. I have 3 cans of NXT paste and 2 (Collinite 845 & Pinnacle) liquid waxes. Only difference is how I use them. I'll do Collinite 845 & NXT paste in the winter and NXT paste & Pinnacle the rest of the year.

I only work on my car, so being effecient in time is never an issue with waxing. I just love using a tin of wax as they are just so cool to stack up and look at, and much more fun to use, though a little bit more worrysome as you gotta make SURE the surface is really clean so you don't get dirt in the paste! I guess it is more of just a collectors/ethusiast thing

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I use liquid nxt right now, I would love to try paste. The only reason i would think paste is better is because It might be more consentrated, there might be less chemicals needed to liquify the wax. I have been told by meguiars that they offer the same protection and shine, but i'm not sure. The nxt paste wax looks like its older than the nxt liquid, im not sure. I belive it is a valid to worry about contaiminate the paste. I used paste very breifly, and i loved it. I personaly wax by hand. I love waxing, I do it every week, I dont mind how long it lasts. I am interested in shine and protection.

What is #16? I can't seem to find it in a product search.

(I sure wish you could search for the product's number.)

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I have a PC waiting in the wings for this spring. I have so much to try, NXT on my wife's Pilot, 4star UPP and Souveran's liquid carnouba (oxymoron I know) simplly because I wanted to try pates first with a Rotary.

Shows how to use both liquid and paste with a PC. We're all wiser if we learn to use both!

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I voted liquid, I've used it my whole life, I just started a detailing business and will definitely be using liquid only, and to be honest I've never even tried paste (like others thought it felt like I was back in the 80's)....That being said, after joing MOL and reading a ton of amazing feedback on #16, I had to buy a couple cans of it.(e-shine) is it possible I could be converted? is #16 that good?

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

After using #16 with a fresh high-tech applicator, I really don't have a preference. It's the skill of the user mixed with the passion of the user that would yield better or worse results. Like I said, Pursuit G5, I refilled the pad three times, that is a HUGE difference! Heck, the pad doesn't even look used...at all!

I'm guessing that I can do the Quest with maybe five refills or so.

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I have a G100 and just recently bought some NXT Paste. I have to say it's just as easy to apply and IMHO, it looks better than the liquid NXT I was using before. I know it's supposed to be the same thing but even my 81 year old mother-in-law said it looked better.

With a small plastic putty knife I can apply the paste to the pad just a quick as the liquid and it seems to me the paste goes further. Got to say I love the way my Dark Red F-150 looks now with the NXT paste.

to Meguiars!!!!

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I prefer Liquid for the ease of applying.

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

The difference between paste and liquid wax is really one of convenience and personal preference. Meguiar's liquid formulas provide the same protection as paste, and are easier and faster to apply...

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I agree with Sydster. Despite what they say, paste seems to deposit a thicker layer on the surface.

Re: Liquid or Paste Wax?

I prefer paste over liquid IMO it lasts longer than liquid.
