How does the Meg NXT 2.0 fair in this regard?
This is the Wax I use on my truck p21S ---> http://www.p21s.com/products/bis_cw.html

It goes on easy and I use microfiber towels to buff off the excess; don't have to wait till it dries. . I use it on all painted surfaces as well as the mirrors, head and tail lights and moonroof. If a bit gets on the trim you can use a toothbrush to buff it off. I use Aerospace 303 on all rubber, trim, tires, dash, seats (not cloth ), internal door panels and other hard surfaces.

I use this product line (Menzerna) on older vehicles such as my previous Porsche 944T ---> http://www.eshine.ca/products.php?cat=64 with a PC buffer. It seems to be the best to bring poor paint up to snuff.

Little hint: Go to a motorcyle shop and look for S-100. It's the exact same wax as P21S, only branded differently and marketed to motorcycle guys.

It's usually about half of what P21S sells for.

If you want something that's darn near bullet proof then one of the Collinite waxes (there are several) will do the trick. These are great winter waxes. The two I would recommend are Collinite 845 their liquid wax and 476S one of their paste wax.

476s is without a doubt their most durable and one of the most durable waxes you can buy and it's inexpensive at $16/tin. Collinite claims 1 year protection, but I would put that more at 6 months, still a long time.

Thumbs up

Before I became disabled I would detail my truck.I would wash,clay,wash,polish/seal with Liquid Glass,and sometimes spray detail over the LG.Then,I discovered NXT 2.0.I would do all of the above,then polish with the LG and use NXT after the LG. A lot of detailers out there know about LG and still like it.If I were still detailing my truck today I would still use it.

I still have 5 or 6 cans of that LG bought in a closeout years ago on the shelf! I've used several coats LG before, never thought to use something else over top like NXT 2.0.
