The power of NXT over 12 layers of Zaino on black C5

Interesting find on the Meguiars forum (not sure if this is a repost):

Wow such pretty Zaino swirls.

I find it amazing that so many Zaino users do not understand that Zaino does nothing to get rid of swirls.

I've tried telling my ex that who also has a black C5 and uses Z religiously. She has seen what NXT does to my paint but for some reason she doesn't want to try it out.

Actually, here at Autopia, most Zaino users do know that. They use all sorts of other swirls removers and polishes before applying Zaino. It's just the non-Autopian Zaino users that don't always grasp that point.

I've seen that picture at MOL. I can understand that Mike P will favor Meguiar's products but this is a bit misleading IMO.
I think all (or most) of us know that Zaino is only a protectant. But to anyone new it basically says that Zaino = swirls.

I'm amazed someone would put 12 layers of Zaino over such a poorly prepped surface.

I'm amazed that somebody would spend that much money for a wax and apply 12 layers when 1 layer of NXT looks pretty darn good with the same prep.

Wow,

Great find! I couldn't resist and had to ask about that over on MOL

Guess which lasts longer. Amazing what some oil and filler can do, isn't it?

I've never used Zaino, but it looks too complicated for me. Simplicity and "cheap" is the name of the game. I guess the hype works

I never got that kind of filling with NXT. That is impressive. So, did the NXT completely wipe out those 12 layers? It might not last as long, but hey, they did 12 layers of Zaino.
