I have learned a lot since this thread was started.

As for Meguiars products... for a sealant, try #21. INCREDIBLE product... long lasting, looks great, closest to a carnauba look for sealants. NXT isnt really a wax... its synthetic like a sealant.. and a great one at that. #21 tops NXT in my book.

Meguiars wax.. if you can get your hands on a tin of #16, thats the best they offer IMO. #26 is a close second... very close. Im currently putting #21 through a test on my wifes Mazda... but I previously got 5 months of protection out of #26 on her Mazda before it showed signs of total deterioration.

As for beauty and protection... look at Chemical Guys 5050. Hot stuff on the market and only $48 for a can, yes.. $48 for a can of wax.

Between Mother's and Meguiar's, I'm a Meg's guy. Specifically, for wax, I prefer Collinite.

I'm a big fan of Griot's Garage stuff. It's pricey, but the quality is unmatched, bar none.

I used to use #16 as I felt that was the best paste wax ever. Sucks that it's discontinued as it was really great stuff.

Since then, S100 (rebadged P21S in Harley dealers) is what I use and never looked back.

Yeah it does suck.... but if you look hard enough you can find some even here in the states. Ive managed to grab 3 tins within the last couple months. Ive had to hold back from buying more.... some reason I want to horde #16 even though 3 cans will last me a couple years even using it on customer cars. (I detail cars on the side, #16 is used a lot)

All I can say is you have to try it. Once you do, you will change your mind on anything else you use.
Per the above website...

"NEVER WASH YOUR CAR AGAIN.... when you use Fukken Wax there is no reason to wash your car again. Simply spray on Fukken Wax, rub on, and buff to a shine. You can now save money on soap, water, sponges, and stay dry yourself."

NOW THAT IS ******' STUPID RIGHT THERE! Good luck with that crap!

Meguires NXT or Gold Class here! Also tried the ICE product...works well but very expensive and no local dealer discount prices like Meguires.
