I can say for starters that this stuff is EXPENSIVE. $16 for a tin of it, and after two waxings, it's a little over half gone. (Then again, I laid the stuff thick on my stang )

Before I applied it, I had HORRIBLE swirl marks all over from a winter of not getting outside to wax it right. It is a bit tougher to apply than liquid wax (and I was at first afraid of doing more damage than help by having to mash the sponge down on there to get the wax off it), and is REALLY dusty when it comes off.

After I got the wax off, I would have to say at least 70% of my swirl marks were gone... it works GREAT. I have had the first coat on for over two weeks and the swirl marks are still gone, and the car still has that slick freshly-waxed feel. Of course, it's covered in dust now... but as soon as it warms up I'll rinse it off and see if the dust and dirt comes off (I don't expect it to, but who knows).

Overall, so far, I can recommend this stuff, but not for use every time you wax your stang because of the expense. It will be good to use once every two months or so, and I can imagine it will help to eliminate swirl each time it's used. Give it a try!

Yeah, that stuff is great. Especially on dark colors. Ive used the liquid and very pleased. Not much dust at all while wiping it off. I used it on my mustang and jeep 6 months ago. The jeep stays outside and when I wash it, it looks like it just had a fresh coat of wax put on it. Great stuff.

It is supposed to be good stuff, but it didn't look that great on my bright red Mustang. I have heard the it definitely works best on certain colors.

I got absolutely fantastic results using Klasse All-in-One followed by a couple of coats of P21S pure carnuba. Of course if you think NXT is expensive.... I paid about $50 I think for both products, but a little goes a long way -- I should get several seasons out of it....

I've really liked it since the first time I used it. But 16$ for a bottle or can isn't really that bad. There are many a car care product that are way more expensive. You get what you pay for. BTW I use the liquid and can wax my car about 10-15 times before I need a new bottle.

I have now used this on all (3) of my cars. The 2 daily drivers get 1)clay 2)paint cleaner 3)polish 4)tech wax and the Stang (pretty day car only) gets 5) #26 Meguiars yellow wax. I only do all the steps twice a year, but I reapply the wax whenever it seems to need it.
I have found that after doing all of these steps the cars (even DD) are much easier to wash and keep looking good between waxes.
The cleaning and polishing phases will make the tech wax do its job even better.
Shine on.
