i used NXT wax about two weeks ago before a weekend cruise, parked it in garage since then, pulled it out, washed it w/ megs deep crystal, and noticed the NXT is all but gone - in direct sun, all the RIDS are back, which nxt filled and covered, the surface was dry, non-smooth, and non-slick. brutal.

NXT = weekend car show wax

i've had glazes last longer

I had the same experience with NXT, so went back to Megs #7/#26 which is fantastic, then arrived at Zaino, where I'll remain for the rest of my natural days...

Zaino is one of the only polishes out there that will give you BOTH good looks and durability.

about a week ago I clay barred and applied NXT on my DD to give it one quick shot..... 1 week later the NXT is COMPLETELY non existent! I even washed it with turtle wax platinum (amazing soap) and the car still looks dull......

honestly..... the look of the wax as soon as its done is great but just dont drive your car or sneeze on the paint!!

My findings were identical to yours. I applied NXT on two of my black vehicles. Looked great when I first applied it and after a few washes I couldn't tell it was ever there. Sounds like it would make a good LSP before a car show.

After trying several other products after the NXT I picked Zaino as the best for my needs. Superior durability coupled with outstanding looks.

yup, 'car show LSP' is what it amounts to. admittedly looks good though.

I wonder if MEG's is planning something different like 'NXT 2'.

may go over to MOL and see whats going over there.
