    Has Anyone Put UPP on Top of NXT?

    I have put NXT on top of UPP but the NXT probably removed or greatly diminished the UPP. I must say that both the NXT and the UPP made my black Santa Fe look great but I have a hunch that the UPP will protect the finish longer. I'm an old man now and I need to hear from someone else that has...

    UPP on top of NXT?

    NXT got me through last winter pretty well. I like the way it diminishes minor blemishes. For the upcoming season I'd like to add protection. Has anyone applled UPP over NXT? If so, any problems?

    UPP on top of NXT?

    Has anyone topped NXT with UPP? I have NXT on my black Santa Fe and it looks great. It even went through the Winter pretty well. However, I'd like to have even more protection with gloss this Winter. Will the above combination work? :confused:

    Suggestions for a new silver Avalon?

    I just took delivery of a new metalic silver Toyota Avalon. The paint is near perfect now - and I want to keep it that way. Can you suggest a regimen that won't tax my 72 year old body too much? I still have the black Santa Fe, but the work to keep a black car in the "OOOH-AAAH" stage is...

    What ever happened to Quik Shine and Moose Wax?

    It seems that #80 has replaced VM and NXt or 4*UPP have replaced MW. What say you?

    NXT over 4* UPP

    I just can't let well enough alone. I have 2.5x of UPP on the black Santa Fe for well over a month now. S&W, FD and a couple of "velvet" washes at my favorite Shell dealer and the finish was starting to show some minor swirls. I was too lazy to go the full route of #80, #81 and UPP, so I gave...

    Final Detail is the "Baby Oil" of Paint Care

    Megs #51 Final Detail on 4*UPP is like spraying baby oil on the paint. UPP looks great as a last stage product on my black Santa Fe, but the look gets darker, shinier and way more "liquid" with a QD with #51!! Like Mike P. says (to paraphrase) "I have found something I like and I use it...

    FINAL DETAIL / LAST TOUCH is there a $3.00 difference?

    Final Detail is claimed to not be bodyshop safe, supposedly because it contains "silicones." But, no "silicones" are listed on its MSDS. Last Touch does list "silicones" in its MSDS. But, it costs $3.00 more per gallon. Something in there just doesn't compute. Is there a REAL difference...

    FINAL DETAIL / LAST TOUCH is there a $3.00 difference?

    My question: Since Final Detail is claimed to be not bodyshop safe, is it then, that Meguires is remiss by not including the "non bodyshop compatable" components in the MSDS? If so, what is the real difference between Final Detail and Last Touch? Besides $3.00. Inquiring minds want to know...

    New Favorite

    In the first week of April, I applied NXTx2. The first week of May, I applied 4*UPPx2. I had previously used PUPP v.2 (bought in January or February of 2002) and liked a lot. Subsequent to to UPP v.2, I tried EX. (Liked that even more than UPP v.2.) Then came NXT (liked that even more than EX.)...

    I Couldn't Help Myself

    I just can't help fooling around with my black Santa Fe. It has been a couple of months since the original application of NXT. I was totally pleased! NXT, NXT Spray Wax and FD are a killer combination! But, I had to play with it. Last December I availed myself of the clearance sale on 4*UPP. I...

    NXT - Tech Wax and Spray

    I preped and gave my black Santa Fe two coats of NXT Tech Wax on February 9. I have had the car washed three times (Shell "Velvet Wash." I have QD'd with FD, 3M and QS at various times. I've used the Spray Booster twice - the last time this afternoon. The Santa Fe looks as bright and...

    Prestone "Nano" Wax vs NXT

    It was a deal I couldn't refuse. Sixteen ounces of "wax," an applicator and a MF towel for the price of a stamp and sales tax. Interesting packaging - the pump and all, but the product was just not as good as NXT. I applied two coats according to directions and the "minor" defects were still...

    S100 over NXT

    I have applied a coat of S100 over a preped NXT. I had second thoughts right after I finished - the NXT looked better than I had seen on my black Santa Fe. As is usual with S100, the surface really "pops" after a couple of days. I had this combination on the car for a week with an occasional...

    NXT Makes a Hit with Hyundai!

    I had my black Santa Fe serviced today at the Jaguar/Hyundai dealership. (An odd combination, if I do say so) The "technicians" came out to find out what I used to get such a great looking black. I told them Meguires NXT Tech Wax. But, you have to prep the paint first. Further, they...
