when I refer to depth I mean a 3d appearance- how deep the reflection extends into the paint. IMO on white NXT has deep reflections and #26 seems to be a deep wax as well. What other products equal or better those for depth?

Dark colored car I suggest Souveran!!! I guess a close second IMO would be P21S.

Souveran is very good on dark colors, however IMHO p21s isn`t very different. And the p21s is a bargain compared to Souveran. Both do give very wet, deep looks.

Many will agree with you that their isnt much difference between P21S and Souveran appearances, but *IMO* from my eyes I could tell that there is more depth and wetness with Souveran. I mean its not a drastic difference. Some say that Souveran is that 5-10% better than P21S while I think its a little more than that. I feel it would be 10-15% better :) Either wax is a great choice!

Scottwax suggested that Clearakote`s Carnauba Moose Wax is only second to Souveran.
I`ve just received a sample and am keen to try it.
#26 also creates great depth.
Souveran, Trade Secret, or CMW. Put a glaze underneath to enhance the depth, something like RMG or Brilliance.

I still have not found a combo that offers more depth and wetness than Meguiars #7 topped with #26.

I would also vote for souveran if you really want that 3 dimensional look.

Souveran, Carnauba Moose, #26 and EX w/carnauba all have terrific depth and all will darken the paint slightly.
