Looks awesome! ...as quoted from Meguiars' website referring to NXT wax "This better-than-ever formula produces unbelievably deep, vibrant color and a dramatically clear wet-look." I think your car could be an ad for it. That looks amazing! So I'm assuming you're giving the NXT high marks?? What kind of wax did you use before NXT? I've been using the Meguiars Gold Class liquid wax and have been pleased. But I think when I'm finished with mine I'm getting NXT.

NXT 2.0 is the best wax I have used ever since I started waxing cars in 1977. It is light years better than the old NXT. Goes on easy and has great deep shine.

so far the NXT is the best i've tried. i've also tried liquid lustre, zymol, mother's, turtle wax ice, and a few more that i've forgotten about. but yea, it looks deep and reflects the light well, i'm very pleased w/ it. i've never tried the gold class, but a friend of mine said that it is very good as well.

Well NXT 2.0 is what I'm getting next. Your car sold me!! Unfortunately my Gold Class is a pretty new bottle though so it might be a little bit yet

I currently have a can of NXT, Gold Class and NXT 2.0 (and Zymol and Klasse) and my experience with the Meguiar's Gold Class is it works well but is harder to apply than NXT and way harder than NXT 2.0.

NXT 2.0 is the best wax I've ever used, and in the past 20+ years I've tried everything on the shelves,and even stuff from Car shows and some mail order only stuff. After trying everything, I've thrown away and given away more wax bottles than most people have bought in a lifetime. I now only keep 3 waxes in my garage. NXT 2.0 mostly for just my stang, Meguiars Cleaner Wax for the cars that don't get garaged, and TW ICE for waxing at car shows out in the sun. The only detailer I will ever use again is TW ICE quick spray detailer. Try that one once and you'll never go back to anything else, (even the Meguiars stuff), especially since you can detail in the sun or on a hot car just like their wax.

Do you think the NXT 2.0 gives the depth of color that natural (carnuba) waxes do? I like the original NXT because of its great clarity and lasting finish, but to get really good color depth, I have to use a basecoat of a good carnuba wax and apply the NXT on top 2-3 days later to make it last. However, as far as synthetic waxes go I can't imagine how they could have improved much on the original NXT. Since the original NXT is best single wax that I've used, I'll have to step up to the 2.0 when my can runs out.

They haven't really improved on the shine, it's just that the 2.0 is noticeably easier to remove and it supposedly lasts at least twice as long. (I wouldn't know b/c I wax my car once a month or so, so I've never let ANY wax "wear off").

I was at Meguiars last weekend for a class on maintaining our cars and they informed us of the forums they have. They will answer all your questions and inform you of which products work best for your situation. www.meguiarsonline.com

ORIGINAL: pat123 I just picked up my new Black GT; is there anything that I need to do to the paint before starting to use the NXT? Other than washing is there any other prep? Others may dissagree, but I like to clay my car before I begin to apply any polish or wax. I would even do this on a brand new car. Claying will remove any overspray and contaminants that you can potenially seal onto the surface with wax. After claying, your paint (clear coat) is essentially virgin, and the wax will be most effective.
