I'm gonna have to say thumbs down to the NTS7 LSP.

I'm just not sure what to think about this product. It looks good enough, but the surface is anything but slick when I'm done. It is also very difficult to buff off. On certian colors it is very very hard to see the areas you've missed. I just applied it to my Corolla and I'm just not impressed at all. I think my next step is going to be to go back to the Wolfgang that I know and love. This is why I don't try new things anymore... Everytime I stick my neck out and try something new, it always ends up being 'less than'.

I will say that the leather foam is very nice. Kinda pricey for the number of cars I was able to use it on (a 3.5 TL, LX450, and Pilot), but it worked out great. The upholstery cleaner was really nice too. That was also a short lived product that barely made it through those three vehicles.
 
^^ Exactly. Go to the Products page on Autogeek and it is there. They were on sale when I bought a few products from them. The July contest on Autogeek was for NTS7 pictures, so that was why I bought them to begin with. I wasn't able to get pictures of the Porsche I did with them, but I did get pictures of the Pilot and Reflex. My Porsche guy sent me one of his car, but the lighting is poor. It looks great on the cars, but there is just no slickness, and that is something that really 'wows' customers.

The slickness issue was definitely the NTS7. I used the Wolfgang paint cleaner to strip it off and then put on the Wolfgang sealant. Welcome back slickness!! There are a couple places on the paint that still feel and sound like I need to get a little more agressive with the clay, but 90% of the car is 200% slicker than it was with the NTS7. I'll have to take pictures of the Wolfgang results and see if it shows any difference. Again, the product didn't look bad, but it just didn't have the slickness that I have always looked for in an LSP. I don't know how it delivers on the promise that it resists scratches, but that may be the reason for the feel. Hopefully they will come up with a product that has the slickness we all know and love as well as offering scratch protection and superior looks and durability without feeling like we are buffing concrete off our cars. Too much to ask? lol

Click to expand...

I am not sure that there is any product that can truely offer that type of protection.

The buffing concrete was funny....
 
I figured the same thing, but NTS7 says right on the label that it can provide resistance to scratches. They probably mean swirls, but who knows... It isn't something I even need on cars the color that I have. Two silver and a charcoal grey. Those aren't exactly great swirl concern colors. ;)
 
You are probably right they are confusing the two...when ever I ask someone about their paints condition and ask does it have swirl marks...they look at me funny, and say it has scratches...then I see it and its swirls...

Write to the company and ask them.

And yes silver is fantastic for hiding anything.
