If you thought that was good.... Wash the truck agian, apply some NXT 2.0 followed by #26. Then step back after your done, get the cramps out of your hands, and be amazed.

But for just the cleaner wax...
It looks great! and nice truck, i like it man!

Did you put anything on top of it? I'm pretty sure the Meguiars Cleaner Wax only offers minimal protection. I agree. Put some NXT 2.0 on there, let it cure for 12 hours, and than apply #26 or Gold Class.

I don't think you understand that the "cleaner wax" isn't a wax. It's a cleaner that prepares the paint for polish. The polish prepares the paint for the wax.

You mean "cleaner wax" isn't a wax that also has some slight defect removal/concealing properties?

Maybe I'm misreading what you're saying...

A cleaner wax is a one-step product used to remove/conceal light blemishes (light scuffing, light swirling, etc) as well as leave a protective 'coating' of product behind.



In all honesty, for some people, a Cleaner Wax is the perfect way to go as it offers some cleaning/concealing abilities to help perfect the finish but it also leaves behind protection. For those who only have a couple of hours to give to something like their automotive finish, a cleaner wax is a great way to go. Rarely will one achieve the level that another person will achieve going through a 'full detail' but, we must remember, not everyone is like us.

Additionally, in my opinion, one should maybe wait until the cleaner wax has diminished - or has otherwise been stripped - prior to the application of a full synthetic. The reasoning is that a synthetic should be applied as close to the paint as possible. A barrier layer of a carnauba-based product may impede 'bonding' for protection/effectiveness of the synthetic.
