NXT Paste Review w/ Pics

Nxt Tech Paste Wax

Wonderful Product

This product is very very nice. It goes on/off very easy. The directions said to wait until dry. I waited about 25 mins. because the temp was about 40* in my garage. I purposely applied the product too thick but it came off very easily w/ little smearing.

The paint felt butter smooth after taking it off, which was pretty neat, seeing as i really need to clay and do some light polishing, but that will have to wait til spring.

The look of this wax is incredible, i would say it is basically the same as the liquid form, save the gloss. The gloss is outstanding. The best that i have used.

There are really no cons of this wax that i found, it didnt stain trim. Durability is my main area of interest here. I want to see how long this will last in comparison to the liquid form of nxt, which i get about 2 months out of..

I also used NXT insane tire shine on the tires. My initial thoughts on this are that it 1) stinks 2) VERY shiny/glossy/wet.

I will also have to wait and see how long it lasts. This is definately not a product for someone who doesnt like shine. By FAR, the shiniest tire dressing i have used. But I, for one, enjoy shine. So i will continue to use it, if it doesnt sling.

Attached are pics of the car w/ nxt paste. Hope this review was helpful.

I had problems getting a thin layer, the paste version seemed to have a bit of drag.

No problems for you?

Any pics of your tyres after the NXT Tire Shine ? Maybe a new thread :xyxthumbs

Looking good :bounce

Ya, i found it a little bit hard to get a thin layer, thought it might have had to do w/ the temp.

Ya, im going to run a few errands and then ill take some pics of the tires, and possibly of the sling(if there is any).

Do we know whether this product has cleaning ability? #16 can be layered on top of other products. But, I`m guessing this product will remove SG, UPP etc.

Nice, is the smell about the same as liquid version? i find it is too strong.

It has been stated on MOL that the paste has the same light cleaning properties as the liquid.

Smell is exactly the same.

That is what I suspected. Unfortunately, that also eliminates any interest I might have in the product. I understand that Meguair`s is trying to produce a high quality product that can be used by consumers. But, this is a strategy that will not fit my needs.

Oh well....

**Robb** · 01-24-2005, 05:21 PM

Yes, the same smell, except a little stronger actually.

It makes a good cleaner wax though. I used it to remove some tar and paint transfers on a work truck. My guess is that it has more than just some "light" cleaning properties.

I`m sure it is a high quality product (like most products from this brand). It is not going to meet the needs of enthusiasts though.

I did a test on my hood with NXT over AIO. I waited 24 hours after the AIO then applied NXT. The hood seemed alot clearer and reflective then the rest of the car.

I figured if NXT doesnt remove all of the previous layers of NXT how would it possibly remove AIO. I think i am right.

I`m not sure it would remove an underlying product completely. But, I would not be surprised if it degrades the underlying product.

They are two different products. It`s hard to say what cleaners are in NXT that would dissolve whatever is in AIO.
