Default NXT Question- HELP

Ok, I know that the directions say to apply a thin layer to the entire car, and then buff out. However, That is how I used Meguiars Gold and i found it extremely difficult to buff out the wax. Would you recommend putting a layer on the entire car, or go sectioin by section?

I was an NXT user...not bad, but let me tell you the Carnuba Cleakote Moose Wax is untouchable. They are sold by Juztang at Obsessivedetail.com (sponsor here)..a no..I don't get any kickbacks from Justin. To answer your question...do one section at a time and use mircofiber towels. I sometimes go through4 or more in one waxing....

The NXT should be applied to the whole car. If you have a garage, apply a thin layer and pull it in and leave it over night to cure. Buff out later.

Make sure if you leave it in the garage over night, use a quick detailer to take it off. There will be dust that accomulates and can cause swirls.

I am an obsessive detailer. I have one cabinet in my garage just for wax/finishing products--I've tried
them all. All I can say echos the earlier post--"kick it up a notch" with moose wax, Fat Bob's etc. Do
at least a two coat process and you will be amazed at the results. Good Luck.

When I was a kid, a neighbor on the block had a black Buick. He spread original Simoniz paste wax over the entire vehicle & left it sit overnight. He was still trying to get that s**t off that car 3 weeks later[sm=lol.gif][sm=lol.gif]

Hello, is it the paste or the liquid. I use the liquids from Meguiars and no problems doing the whole car first and then buffing out after. Meguiars liquid gold class is so easy to apply and remove if you put an even thin coat. I have been using it for as long as it has been out and the meguiars 3 step system is great too! Only problem with the Gold class is it lasts no more than 3 months depending on the weather. I do it because it is a pasttime for me (believe it or not). JMO J
