Nice car on the front of the NXT bottle. After trying about a million different ones and working at a detail shop as a youngster, I use Zymol or Einszett. Einszett is what the guy who details a lot of cars for the Ferrari Club of New Orleans uses. Both work really well. Here is a link for Einszett if your interested:

Meguairs Deep Crystal System Polish - It's a three step process 1) clean 2) polish 3)protect (carnuba wax) and every now and then I use a 3m glaze on top of that.

since we're on the subject, i have a question on wax..i just started using zymol since it was highly recommended and i saw that its a cleaner wax, so thats not a protectant sealer wax also right? or is it?

cause i was thinking the next time i do wax my car, should i apply another protectant wax after the zymol? i been using mothers carnuba wax before i got the zymol..

any help would be appreciated

Zaino products are the Ferrari's of automobiles. Nothing even comes close. Is it worth the extra trouble of putting it on a 10 year-old paint job such as most of the 7's around here? Nope.


It is worth it though if you buy a brand new car and are interested in keeping the paint looking 100% for years and years.


For my S, I have been using the NXT wax and am satisfied of the results and ease of application.

I have autoglym window polish which worked pretty good on the parts of the window not pitted. But for waxing it's zaino all the way.
