    Megs Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax

    What have your experiences been with it? Just used it and it doesn`t make the paint slick at all....

    That`s over-the-counter consumer grade wax. Iv`e used it once or twice and its complete garbage. Don`t get me wrong I use/love Meguiar`s products, but that stuff is crap. Just my 2¢.

    Yes..over the counter stuff...did you de-contaminate, polish at all? The surface needs to be smooth to get that slickness feel before a wax or sealant/coating.

    I basically agree with the above guys. It`s not bad for an OTC wax especially if you use the entire system. But the durability is lacking. I have had better luck with the Meg`s NXT2.0.

    If you are looking for that really slick feel, you will want to clay the finish to get rid of any contamination and then use a sealant. I find that sealants are almost always slicker than waxes.

    I guess that`s what I get for getting the amateur stuff. But yes I clayed and used XMT3 and then XMT1 first.

    I don`t think it is a bad wax and it is a nice introduction to the Meguiar`s line up. That said, Meguiar`s makes a host of better waxes, from Gold Class, NXT, Ultimate, and my favorite, M26.

    It was very nice back in the 1980`s. But it cost as much then as it does now. Pretty sure Deep Crystal was then what #26 is now. There were both liquid and paste versions of Deep Crystal wax.
