i've tried the nxt, and thought it wasn't nearly as good as any of the paste waxes i have tried.

i hear that. I live on top of a mountain, and this time of year literally i can clean the **** out of the car, and 20 minutes later you wouldn't be able to tell. whole car just turns instant green.

well i ordered the wax with some other stuff, like a wash mitt and applicator so the shipping was more because they used a bigger box, best to pm them for a shipping quote, for me it worked out to only about $10 or so

it is a review for the product. a direct sunlight pic can show how well it covers up the swirls i would assume. i am not a detailer in any sense, but i'm thinking thats why the picture was requested.

Thought i would give an update, its been over 3 months since the last wax and it was still holding great, even when the car was dirty, it still had a nice shine to it. I just did another wax so its ready in case we get an early winter and i dont have time to do another wax.

This pic was taken a few weeks back and the car had not even been washed for awhile



Deffinately a good wax and has held up awesome.

I still have half a bottle of the original pre-wax and regular wax left before I crack open the new pre-wax and polycharged sitting in my closet at home (stocked up a bit while the dollar was high). As with the OP I haven't waxed my car in months and it has seen heavy rains, weekly washing and a borderline tornadoe I got stuck in on the highway, still holding up like a champ !!
