    Apply Megs #7 before or after NXT?

    I am planning on the following on my black car: Menz FPII/NXT/Megs #7/Souveran Since NXT has come cleaning properties, would it make sense to top the NXT with the Megs Show Car Glaze then top that with the Souveran? Just want to make sure I have the right order. Thanks! -Ryan

    Somewhat cloudy reflection - what to do?

    I recently tried DACP with a Megs Yellow Pad on my PC. I then followed it with NXT. The car is a black 300zx. This is a picture of the reflection but it seems to be hazed a bit. The paint itself isn't oxidated or clody itself but the reflection isn't as clear as I expected. Should...

    New 04 Jeep Liberty - What should I use?

    I am going to detail my mom's 2004 Flame Red Jeep Liberty tomorrow as a good gesture. It is new and has been washed weekly since she got it in September. I don't think it needs any cleaner so I think a polish and wax will be fine. Do you agree? I was thinking of Show Car Glaze topped with...

    PC from Coastal Tool with Bonus Kit-Backing plate needed?

    I just bought a PC from Coastal Tool with Bonus Kit (including hook and loop backing pad and 6" counterwight). I read that since the hook and loop backing plate is velcro I don't need a backing plate, just velco backed pads. Is this true? It would save some money. THANKS! -Ryan
