Looks good.

Why did you remove NXT with a rotary?

Looks great! but..........:nono
Don`t use mag polish on clear coated wheels, next time put a coat of NXT or (Wheel Wax is what I use) instead. Remember NXT was no formulated for use with a rotary

Lookin Good!!

i dont know, i thought i was doing good. I put the nxt on with the applicator that came with it. Let dry for 10-15 mins. and removed with a polishing pad. Is there something wrong with that? if there is please let me know.

Yes. A rotary is for paint defect removal, not wax/sealant removal. You can remove wax/sealnat with a PC using a MF bonnet. The problem with using a rotary to remove wax/sealant is the rotary could leave buffer swirl, hologramming or burn the paint. I believe NXT does has a little filler which may cover the buffer swirl if any was left.
