Question NXT, would you buy it again?

In view of various threads commenting on NXT and a durability issue, Im curious if those who have bought a bottle already, or used a sample packet....would purchase an additional bottle or succumb to making the first purchase.
Or, would you prefer another Megs brand altogether??

I like NXT and it will continue to be part of my arsenal. It won't ever be the end all wax for me. I like the look of different waxes on different colors and like sealants depending upon the need. I think it's a pretty good product.

Having said the above, I'm no expert on how long this product might go. I've had it on as long as 6 weeks with no problems. I usually put a new coat of something on at least monthly. I'm just not a good reference when it comes down to how long it will last.

I already have. Looks alone on my paint, it is the best IMO, it gives me the look that I want.

I apply something at least every month so the durability variables that some people seem to be experiencing don't concern me.

Patrick,

should this have been a YES/NO poll?

I won't repeat it. There are other products that last somewhat longer. While it is a pleasure to work with, longevity is probably my top priority.

While I think #20 is the best product of the four, I'd buy NXT again.

I've got the Medallion. I've got the Gold Class. I haven't used #20 for years so I can't comment. I guess if those are the choices I'd give the nod to the re-formulated Medallion.

I have now replaced my VM step (usually second step) that I used to use in every detail with NXT. I think it fills better, looks roughly the same and offers a lot more protection.

I then top that with either #16, P21s, Souveran, Blitz or Collinite depending on color and season (for durability sake).

I do not use sealants. I obviously preceed the NXT with a polish or paint cleaner.

I reserve the VM for trim, chrome and glass.

I've already bought more. I think it has a somewhat darker look than #20 and for that reason, I have both. #20 for lighter colors and NXT for darker colors.

a.k.a. Patrick,

How about posting another poll and this time just put yes/no options. You may get more responses and a good guage of who is and who is not happy with NXT.
