Last night, I made a really stupid, ridiculous mistake that I'm sure all Autopians would have a really good laugh.
One of my car was already treated weekly to NXT for the past 3 weeks. Last night, I was thinking of freshening it up in preparation for a layer of S100 on top. I grabbed the NXT Booster Wax Spray bottle from the shelf and started to use as directed by the instructions. The car was freshly washed and dried beforehand.
Horror of horrors! The stuff smeared the paintwork badly and refuse to buff off cleanly. It was like pushing around a layer of thin oil. Frustrated, I wiped down with water, dried it and applied a layer of NXT. Buffed it off to reveal a fantastic shine. Problem solved.
It was only later that I discovered my mistake...
Instead of grabbing the NXT booster wax (pump spray), I had accidentally grabbed the NXT Protectant and used it on my car!!!!!! How stupid!
When I relooked closely, I realised why I had made the mistake.
I was in a rush and both products share the same bottle, same colour scheme on the labels. At a glance, they looked almost the same!!!!
Anyway, it can happen to anyone of us. Just a contribution from me so that if you're in rush, pls look at the label before you use the NXT Booster Wax. Thanks.
