Yup if it left smears you put it on a tad too thick. It took me about two applications to get it down good and it was very easy to take off. Great wax for sure.

I found that if you dampen the applicator pad and use the NXT spray wax...you can apply about 1-2 squirts per panel straight onto the pad...it comes off very easily.

Never had any issues while using NXT. As a matter of fact I picked up the new NXT 2.0 to try it on the next detail.

As for the wax, not hard to take off, just left smears. Like it was wet or something.

Dave I used it on my wifes red car. It's very sensitive to over applying. Just do a very thin layer and let it sit for a good half hour or so. I noticed a couple spots the next day that it was a little smeared. So I gave it a quick wash and just hit it up with a little detailers spay and wiped it, looks **** now.

I've used it on my car about 3 times, it looks good, not Zaino good, but for a 1 application wax that's easy to work with it's not bad. Just go real thin and makes sure if your polishing cloth get's dirty quick then grab a new one. I can wipe down my whole car w/ a 24" x 24" cloth and do the whole thing. If your polishing cloth is getting dirty too quick then you are probably using too much.

You don't have enough to give it to said mustang. 579rwhp. Poor driver though. I may be able to give it to him. Not sure. Willing to try.

I'll stick with the gold class in the paste. I like it better than the liquid. May work better in the sun than in the garage. I'll use it on the honda & xterra.

nothing like carnuba wax it might be harder to take off but it does its job never felt good about liquid wax or any other kind, i feel like its putting polish in your car without the wax after........cream waxes are the best in my opinion

You can wipe off NXT instantly, you can do your car twice in the time you are letting the first coat "cure"

Mothers California Gold tends to do the best on my black car. NXT was definitely worth second place though. Now I'm curoius how NXT 2.0 is compared to NXT and whether it will match or turn out better than Mothers CG. Or is NXT 2.0 just NXT rehashed?
