Well today I went to Canadian Tire (Crap-U-Tire:D) and I picked up the Meguiars Deep Crystal System (3 step system: Paint cleaner, Polishing, Waxing). I bought the Quick Detail as well because I plan on using the clay bar with the quick detailer and that will be the first thing I do to the car before following the 3 step system.



I was also looking at the NXT wax by Meguiars (wow sooo expensive..$29.99):eek:.



Now my questions are...



I have an Acrylic Enamel Paint job (no clear coat) I have gotten the car "proffesionally":rolleyes: cut, then I recently cut it myself, I don't want to have anything to do with cutting my paint anymore!.



So with these products will they work fine for me on my type of paint?



Also I really want to try this Meguiars NXT wax. Now would I be able to replace the 3rd step of the 3 step product which is the wax part with the NXT?



I have Meguiars Polymer Sealant, is there any point in using it inbetween any of these steps or no?



Thanks in Advance

Those products oughta work OK, but you might need something in between the PI-III RC and the 3-Step.



IMO the NXT isn't gonna do all *that* much more than the Polymer you have now. I'd spend the $30 elsewhere.



You can use most any Meg's Last Step Product (LSP) as the third step, but anything with cleaners might remove some of the second step.



You maybe oughta look for an autopaint/body supply shop. They have better products.
 
So don't bother with the NXT, just do the the clay bar then the 3 step product and that's it?



I won't need the Polymer Sealant then?
 
I'd probably try the third step LSP that comes with the 3-Step just because a) you just paid for it, and b) you already tried the polymer sealant. That way you can see which you like best. But I bet the polymer is gonna be the better of the two.



99.9% of how things look are determined by what you do before the LSP anyhow. Do the prep right, and it's gonna look good. Don't apply the LSP until it looks as good as you want it to.



Work on the waterspots, that's the real issue here. Get rid of them and by the time you're done it oughta look good.
 
Well the Clay and Paint cleaner should get rid of the spots!



what is the LSP? is that the WAX (the last part of the 3 step product)?



When cna I apply the Polymer Sealant?
 
Well I just bought the first step of the 3 step product haha. So I won't even bother with the 3rd step and I will use the Polymer Sealant instead.
