Default Spray Wax Opinion


Hey everyone.

I have read the general description of both products. I use Megs Ult. Quick Detailer and I love it. I also use Megs NXT 2.0 Paste wax. Is there truely a pro vs con on each of these items. Is there a signifigant improvement putting the NXT spray wax over NXT 2.0 or both with in the same ball park? What am comparing it to is Ult. Quick Wax.

I have a feeling that either one I can use with great success. I was just wondering if anyone had a personal spin or opinion on this.

I am also looking for other opinions on other products. Mine will be used as a Booster if that helps.

I agree. I use either #26 Hi Tech Yellow or NXT 2.0 for my wax/sealant layer but just looking for a quality booster and I think I am going to do Ult Quick Wax.

you should only really use spray wax to get rid of water spots in between waxing.

i like to use a liquid wax followed by a paste wax

Yea, thanks for all the opinions.

I got basically 3 I am going to look at.

Eagle One Nano
Megs Ult Quick Wax
Megs Tech Quick Wax

like said earlier, this goes on between washes and I generally re apply my paste wax every so many washes.

Optimum Spray Wax or the Meg's Ultimate Quik Wax if you want something you can get locally.

I really like the Lucas sspa spray. It even shines up the rubber trim and glass. A really nice product imo. Give it a try!

I love the Mother's spray wax. I use it on the windows to help keep water off if it was to get close to it. No streaks like some of the others. Just my opinion though!
